You can tell us more about Radcliffe.

• there are no buildings worth keeping in Radcliffe
• cafe de mong a.k.a domminics due to the clientele who frequent there
• The church at the top of the cross, its over a thousand years old, I first went in at a friends wedding, a true treasure tucked away in the background just on the sharp bend on Dumers lane
• Bridge Methodist Church. Still alive & well, totally revamped inside since the ceiling fell in about 10 years ago, afraid the wooden windows also had to go because of the dry rot. The building is now not only a Church, but also a community centre, all sorts of things going on day & evening, from prayer groups to scrabble club.
• Kelsalls in Radcliffe centre. You can still see the original Radcliffe coat of Arms in the Masonry at the top. Also, not strictly a building, but the Steam Crane down the canal.
• The bus station - a means of escape!
• my birds house
• The Kwik - Save building.
• My old house (Coventry Road)

• Bridge Methodist school, behind the library. Mrs Bostock the teacher. She was fantastic with her bamboo canes.
• The War Memorial opposite the old Town Hall (Now converted into flats for persons on Benefits)is a most moving tribute to the men and women who gave their lives in the two world wars.
