I know there was a 'wire works around there..but that was near Ivy Cottages on the opposite side of the Tame as shown... I've walk the banks of that river on both sides many times but can't remember anything it could have been. Now you have mentioned the Kennel I'm reminded of the noise that was made if I was walking down there and do not know that stretch as well as the rest... Just checked an old map Dave and it shows a 'Wood Mill' at the end of Lambeth Grove.. I think you have nailed it there Dave.. ;o)Tomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04167792394551286975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8599481671908734427.post-73356091919913992322011-01-27T21:26:39.701+00:002011-01-27T21:26:39.701+00:00The map doesn't seem to be terribly accurate i...The map doesn't seem to be terribly accurate in respect of the course of the river and the canal, but there's a weir in the river just past the boarding kennels at the end of Lambeth Grove in Woodley, and judging by the position of the 'Water Engine' relative to where the canal goes under the Hyde to Stockport road it looks like that's where it is shown to be. We once lived on Talbot Road, incidentally, and a lifelong friend of Beryl's parents always used to refer to it as 'Muslin Street'.Dave Williamsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8599481671908734427.post-9470363371585461562011-01-27T18:18:27.518+00:002011-01-27T18:18:27.518+00:00It's nice to see that some of the names are st...It's nice to see that some of the names are still with us.. Talbot Road shows as Muslin Street.. I don't know anything about the 'Water Engine' on the Tame... that might get a bit of looking into when I've got the time. ..Tomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04167792394551286975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8599481671908734427.post-18866620312092616732011-01-27T17:46:03.971+00:002011-01-27T17:46:03.971+00:00I haven't seen this before ,Tom.
