More about this scene
It's said that this street was once known as 'Snuffy Row' because so many quarrymen who lived here had a strong liking for snuff. In a document dated 1295 this area was referred to as 'Runcoure Superior' - this had nothing to do with the class of people who lived here but referred to the fact that it was on the hill; it's still known as Higher Runcorn.
