Pinch Belly Row ... Birtwistle Street. That was easy, you already mentioned it in the thread on the Monkey Steps. :D:D

Will have to search a little more on Pinky Row though. Will be back >>>>>>>>>

Would you care to name names. Or are you talking about another one of your split personalities.

Typical responce from a deluded female, talks all day, & when gob finally stops, thas said nowt.
If the other persons wish to make their feelings known on here, thats up to them, not me. They've probably put you on their ignore list.

Would this be the row of terraces just down from the Thwaites Victoria Pub on the corner of Henry st? Am I in roughly the right area or way off?
Thanks

Sorry, don't know of a Peter & Margaret Wells with 4 children in the 60's. However, I did have an uncle who lived who lived on Burnley rd in the 60's upto his death quite recently. His name was Roy Wells (used to work for the council as an Architect years ago now).

You're right - must have passed it many times on the bus on the way to Manchester for weekend jollies when I was a slip of a girl...

129 seems a very high number for a terrace - could that have been the number on Manchester Road?

What a totally and utterly meaningless comment. Susie, I demand more meaningfulness from your comments! ;)

Ah yes, Adrian does mention it in his maps as being Walton Street, Altham West.

Wonder why Pinky ? Are they Nori bricks or summat ? :D

Pinky Row was behind Whalley Rd, Altham West, opposite the old Nori Brick works.
