Salfords School
I was born in 1951 in Copsleigh Avenue (No 42). I must have started at the 'old' Salfords School in 1956. (My sister Jennifer was born in 1947 and was there too.) The photograph shows its location being just about deserted, apart ...Read more

Salfords Memories Of A Small Boy
We lived in Salfords from about 1948-1952, at the top of Honeycrock lane. Yes Angela, you did pay in the cubicle in the butcher's and the baker's shop was Cakebread's - very appropriate. I went to the old ...Read more

Royal College Of Advanced Technology Salford
I attended Salford for two years 1963-1965, studying Civil Engineering. I suffered from undiagnosed mono and fought fatigue and sleepiness, so much so that I could not keep up with my studies and had to withdraw. I did not enjoy my time there and went through the motions of being a student.

Familiar high street names were putting in an appearance: Marks & Spencer and Halford's Cycle & Motor Store. Bond's was a department store – 'The House For Value and Distinctive Ideas'.
The new hall was built with a generous donation from Lady and Sir Halford Reddish, director of Rugby Cement. Modern detached houses have replaced some of the cottages on the far right.
Frith's photographer was standing beyond Halford's, looking east towards the river bridge. Burford Bridge is on the right, its wide 1927 main arch flanked by rebuilt medieval ones.
The horse chestnuts (left) belong to the Rookery woods, while on the right is Nag's Head Island with A W H Halford's premises, the long shed-like structure, offering boats for hire.
On the left beyond Bevans and Halfords was Rosie Royal`s; she ran a greengrocer's and a wet fish shop, and everyone knew her.
Although retaining the form of an earlier 17th-century house, the building is essentially a drastic remodelling of 1814 by Sir Henry Halford, formally Henry Vaughan, a successful medical practitioner
Virtually all of the buildings in this photograph have been replaced; today the Orchards Shopping Centre is on the left, whilst on the opposite side of the road are currently Barclays Bank, Halfords
Very few remain the same, although Halfords (right) only moved in recent times. On the left stands the Wesleyan chapel, with the old ABC cinema further away on the right.
Halford's to the rear was demolished, and the site was cleared for the grounds of the successors to Stevens & Carter Boats Ltd, whose ramshackle sheds were something of an eyesore.
The building was occupied by Halfords, and is now the Oxfam shop. The two low buildings next to Redwoods have had a wide range of uses, from nurseries to restaurants.
Halfords, the cycle shop, had to compete with at least three other cycle retailers. They sold bikes on hire purchase at 2/6 a week.
