Nostalgic memories of Chorley's local history

Share your own memories of Chorley 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 would luv to see any photographs of the street parties for Steeley Lane, especially those taken in and on the front of the.RAILWAY PUB! thanx to anyone who who could help!
Can anyone remember my grandad Mark Gregory? He had an Antique or Second Hand shop called The Mart, he died when I was young. I am doing a family tree and need to find as much info as possible about him to enable me to continue my search as I lost my father in 2004. Thank you
I was at the market in the 60's, my mum was living with my cousin, Catherine Murphy and mum had to go into hospital. I am trying to get in touch with my cousin - can anyone help, my name is Jim Reilly and i live in Scotland.
