Demolition of Hyde Lads Club

Here are a series of photographs sent to us by Paul Taylor. They show the demolition of Hyde Lads Club circa 1991. A sad day, indeed ,when this came down. I wish it was in operation now to give the youth of Hyde a place to go. Maybe they should open a new one? It would have to be called "Hyde Lads and Lasses Club" thought due to equality laws ;)

Showing the Beeley Street entrance which was the main entrance.

The view from the Travis Street side.

This view was taken from the multistory car park showing the Gymnasium wall - The main building has already been pulled down.

A view from the bottom of what was Thomas Street showing the Gymnasium building.

Looking over to what remains of the club from Travis Street.

Thanks Paul. Much appreciated . Excellent photos,as ever! :)

Another great up-date by our resident photographer
