Re: FORGOTTEN CORNERS
The old vicarage/Masonic Hall is a forgotten Corner but Platt developments projects seem to be staggering a bit......

When was the last time you looked Stanley? As far as I am aware they are all pretty well finished down there.

Re: FORGOTTEN CORNERS
Gone are the days when a man could give this to his wife as a wedding present. A forgotten Corner from Troutbeck Bridge in the Lake District.

Re: FORGOTTEN CORNERS
Ellenroad Ring Mill demolition well under way, February 1985. A forgotten corner now but at one time one of the most successful mills in East Lancashire.

Re: FORGOTTEN CORNERS
This is here because I've forgotten where it is. The Caption reads 'Manchester Road 1910'. Is it Burnley?

Re: FORGOTTEN CORNERS
The lad doing his paperwork in the Bancroft engine house in 1977. A forgotten corner in so many ways.

Re: FORGOTTEN CORNERS
A World War 2 Emergency Water Supply sign in Burnley. Once a common sight, directing the fire brigade to sources of water for fire-fighting, they have slowly faded and are now a forgotten corner.

Re: FORGOTTEN CORNERS
Here's an obscure forgotten corner for you. This image is of the wall of a shearing shed at Eumalga Station, Dubbo, NSW where my dad was brought up. The perforated tin cladding is 'Lysarght's Colonial Ceiling', made in South Wales and exported to colonies in the tropics where it was a cooler alternative to a boarded ceiling. Definitely a forgotten corner!

Re: FORGOTTEN CORNERS
Skipton Road corner in 1982. I'd forgotten the Coniston Green slate facing on the Railway pub.

Craven Harrier's hounds at Gisburne Park in 1982. The house was still a private residence in those days....

Re: FORGOTTEN CORNERS
Wellhouse Mill yard in 1963. This had always been 'spare' land after the building of the mill and was used for a variety of activities. In this image it is mainly a car park but shortly afterwards was tidied up and apart from Fairchild's monumental masons in the far corner opposite the gas works, was empty. This may have been because the Showmen's Guild of Great Britain had leased it and it was used for the Barlick annual fair. I think this arrangement came to an end when Silentnight bought the mill. The fair now uses Victory Park.
