Growing up in Runcorn
I was born and bred in Runcorn. I lived on Weston Road. I was born in 1963 and left the town in 1984. What a great place it was. You could buy just about anything in Runcorn from food, furnishing, a new car, you name it and a shop sold it. Does anyone remember Johnsons Meat Pies. They were the best. Geoff Monks Delli and Organs the bakers in Greenway Road. Such happy days. It is hard to believe that such a great place could go downhill like it has done in recent years. All the great names have gone. Tesco, Boots, Claverts, Co-op, Dawsons, Woolworths, Bensons, Army & Navy Store, The Hobby Shop, Dewhursts, MeDermotts, all gone from Church Street and Regent Street. So very sad.
