Hi, always enjoy your website my ancestors inhabited NLW from 1850 until 1911. I have not been able to further my research via your site but it has given me a real feel for the town my father and grandparents came from
Many thanks..Bob |

I have just discovered this site. My husband's grandfather Richard Williams was a blacksmith at the Wagon Works in the 1890s until at least 1901. He lived at 348 Cross Lane West. If anyone has any more information about him, I would be delighted to hear from them. |

Hi Chris.
Mill Lane is to the right hand side of the maps.
If you click on the 1933 map and locate the centre of the map, you will be roughly on the Liverpool-Manchester railway line at around Mesnes Park. Follow the line to the right, ie toward Manchester, until you come to Newton Station. Mill Lane goes under the line at this point, and heads south, down towards Winwick. |

I found the site today! It's excellent. My Dad came from Newton le Willows as an 11 year old boy in 1930.
Have found the maps very interesting and useful but haven't managed to spot Mill lane yet.

St. Aelred's is closing Sept 2011. Please contribute to the school memory lane. I have taught there since jan 1975 and should know a lot of you. It seems a shame to see the place die without chance to comment |

Second attempt for this!! Born and bred NLW amd lived local till '86. Apparently my grand-dad (Mannion) and five of his brothers were the mainstays of Earlestown Bohemians AFC in the mid to late 1930's and the team included a young Joe Fagen who went on to manage Liverpool. Any further info much appreciated.
The pic in the gallery of sports for Newton County Primary should be RLFC as we played rugby not soccer till 67-68 academic year!!
Finally lived in Belverdere Rd(from 64-70) backing on to the fields. Wood Pit was across the fields and Vista Rd. I know it closed in 1971. Can anyone tell me when they stopped using the bucket and pulley system that dumped the slag on the spoil heap? It was working when I first lived Belv. Rd. but not when we left.
Again, much appreciated if anyone can help. |

Hi, I'm searching for info re: Cecil Harry Platt who was born in Newton le Willows c 1875/6. There seemed to be a family naming tradition so if there's anyone out there descended from a Cecil Platt or a Harry Platt from Newton le Willows, please contact me.
Thanks. |
