The Canal

A Memory of Failsworth.

Hi,my name is Stephen Smith, I lived in Regent Crescent through the 50s and 60s. I guess you all remember the Rochdale canal that runs through Failsworth. What a great place to spend your time. Who needed Disneyland. We used to fish, make rafts, throw discarded spindles from the cotton mills into the wooden locks and attempt to walk across it over a steel pipe. We even swam in it until my Dad found out. Boy did I get into trouble. There were old mattresses, old bikes and even a horses head once in it. I now live in Oz but I have been told it is now open to barges again. Love to see it now!
