When next

Maybe "Roman Fort Ruins, Manchester"? Or has Manchester been ruined by the Roman Fort? Just a thought!

A large percentage of the Shambles is reproduction. There was a lot of outrage when the empty sculled planners, apart from the rattling of a pea for a brain inside, decided to totally move the building and RESTORE most of it. They then surrounded it with glass and concrete tower blocks instead of landscaping it. Very in(n) keeping? I had many happy hours in the original pub and restaurant and in the stamp dealers above. Most of the original Manchester has now either disappeared or been converted into overpriced luxury flats.

bet you did not know the lake was originally a marsh, spring fed up by the pillars end if you go back you will see water flow from the missing blocks. gl

Just found your channel so I've subscribed👍 Heaton Park which is not far from where I live

I played in the old station buildings and loco shed building as a child in the early 70s remember all the station layout

I think they need to get the railway back

This is excellent lads! Keep them coming ⭐️👍🏼

Was so nervous speaking but did it il be looking for spooky corner things on next vlogs :+)

Happy new year missed you lots 😮😮

You'd think some background research would have been in order.

It's coming back

Maybe black Harry was " BLACK " , did it ever cross your mind ? , don't feel the need to be too PC , the tunnel had been inspected and was under repair but the machine they brought in to do the job was found to be too big to get in the tunnel so was sent away for modification , it was then the tunnel collapsed resulting in the demise of the two houses

That end building attached to Rivington house was the stores, got set fire to few months back so they knocked it down

Feeder canal 4 elton res

Great video lads , i tried researching this disaster a few years ago but got nowhere , there's a lovely plaque comemerating the loss of life in St Augustine's

its great to go to before you have a trip out on the train from East Lancs

This brought back memories. I'm from Shipley at the other side of Bradford, and used to come here regularly. Trouble is, now I would be unable to climb the stairs. I think there are a lot more outside exhibits than there were.

Were the people who died recovered? Or are they still buried in the collapsed tunnel shaft under their houses? I’ve heard there is a whole train including a driver in another Lancashire tunnel collapse to this day.

Nice video, subscribed

The railway went under brandesholme road

The tunnel runs partly under Victoria Park. If you go into the park from the A6, turn immediately right. On that path there are filled in boreholes, only a few inches wide, from a few years ago when they injected concrete or something similar in to stabilise the tunnel.

Ŵow metrolink is coming to bradley fold 😢

Do helmshore

Shithole

Its coming back

I think the local signalman was known as "Black Harry". There's loads of info online. After the collapse I understand that they filled the tunnel with colliery waste. I moved to Salford in 1959 when I was 10 and used to play at the southern end of the tunnel, there was a stream running out of it and we caught sticklebacks. The portal was filled so we couldn't get inside. Between the East Lancs Road and Patricroft was a desolate wasteland. I revisited the area in 2019, it's a nice walk from Patricroft to the East Lancs Road, the approach to the portal has been built up and grassed over, I couldn't find any evidence of the portal itself. I've put some photos on Flickr, but I can't post a link, my user name is rtbcomp and they're in an album called "Black Harry".

Get shovels out lads...
