Queen's Close


Next door to the Queen Adelaide in Gee Cross are some new houses in what is now Queen's Close.

They are built on the site of what was originally Orlando Oldhams cork cutters factory and latterly Ashworth's bag factory. You can see how it looked in 1984 on Old Hyde.

Happy homes, it seems!
God bless you!

Don't look too bad for new homes. The dash of mock Tudor is a bit dated though.

They look nice to me!

Many of our North West factories seem to end up as housing estates - very sad !!

Where have all the workers gone ??
