Dow St Salford
A Memory of Salford.
I lived at 10 Dow St, Salford, during the 50s.. I remember there was a shop on the corner owned by Mrs Conner`s .. On a Saturday my mum would shop on Lwr Broughton Rd, and a treat would be to stop off at the Milk Bar for a milkshake.
During the summer, kids used to play out on the street playing simple games like hop scotch, whip and top, roller skating or a rope thrown round a lamp post to swing on.
All the neighbours knew each other and there was great community feeling.
I went to Broughton Secondary school, before that Waterloo road school. Manchester,
Happy childhood days growing up in Salford.
