Old Photos Of Where You Live

[Joey66]

Long story short, my mrs got married at a very young age (only lasted 8 months ), anyhow one of their wedding gifts was 2 pictures in frames, one of them was called “waiting for the shops to open” and has Lowry’s signature on it. I’m pretty sure it’s just a printed copy but 1% of me has always thought “what if ?” , the reason I say this is the present was off her ex’s grandmother who was born and raised in Manchester and the pictures were gifted to her many years ago, imagine if I was sitting on an original Lowry all these years

8 months with you joking Lowry I found many copies & prints onu car boot days
It's worth checking the picture out though - you never know

….a junction I knew so well and a significant part of EFC history. I just love that lamppost, imagine designers of today going to the trouble of making street furniture so ornate;

Had hundreds of games of togger on "the tarmac" over many, many years. Was a regular at the "Shewsy" too. Great days.
