A Memory of Patricroft.

Just over the bridge at approx 112 Liverpool Rd use to be a grocers shop which Joseph Schofield ran. He was Mayor of Eccles in 1904-06 approx and is my Great Uncle.

Also attended the Whit Walks where we walked from Trinity Methodist, Patricroft, to the Baths Square which was near Patricroft Hospital.

Dear Lynette, do you know anything about The British School, Patricroft? I wonder if it was a boarding school for girls. I am trying to trace my "Balshaw" ancestors but not having much luck.

June, in answer to your request, unfortunately I have never heard of the British School. So sorry. Lynette

Hi, I lived in Patricroft for the first 22 yrs of my life and I too never was aware of a girls school.
