Gorton

A Memory of Gorton.

I used to go to Sacred Heart in Gorton.
We lived at No 2 Barton Avenue, our back yard backed directly onto the beer garden of the Vale Cottage. I can still remember the smell of the empty pale-ale bottles.
My sister Kathleen also went to sacred heart.
My mum and Dad, Margaret and Arthur, used to get a couple of bottles of beer on a Saturday night and we would get a bag of crisps with the blue bag. What a treat that was. Would love to hear from anybody who knew the place at that time. We left there and moved to Macclesfield in 1969/70 ish, thats when they knocked down Barton Avenue.
