Britons Row

A Memory of Gorton.

Hello again Mary,
I'm not sure if I'm replying correctly to your request for info on Britons Row. If I am and you get this message I have much more info than I first posted below so please send me an email and I'll let have all the extra info.

Hello Mary,
I remember Briton's Row very well. It was just opposite my dad's pigeon pen and next to the Vale Cottage pub at the bottom of Kirk Street, Gorton. I spent many hours as a youngster/teenager on the "pen" and I remember two drinking mates of my dad's, Frank Gallimore (Gally) and Ken Tyler who both lived in Briton's Row. I have a rather poor quality pic of "Gally" digging on his own pen. Sadly the row of cottages were demolished either in the 1960s or maybe the 1980s. Happy days.
