Nostalgic memories of Farnworth's local history

Share your own memories of Farnworth and read what others have said

For many years now, we've been inviting visitors to our web site to add their own memories to share their experiences of life as it was when the photographs in our archive were taken. From brief one-liners explaining a little bit more about the image depicted, to great, in-depth accounts of a childhood when things were rather different than today (and everything inbetween!). We've had many contributors recognising themselves or loved ones in our photographs.

Why not add your memory today and become part of our Memories Community to help others in the future delve back into their past.

I remember when we lived on Devon Street facing the old All Saints school, they built the new school at the end of the street. Our student teacher Mr Barry mad ea film called the vanishing machine where the children made the school disappear. We used to watch the wedidngs at the church sitting on the church wall it was the highlight of our life watching the brides in their wedding dresses.
