The route of this bus service was circuitous - one left Hyde via Clarendon Road and Victoria Street, passing Newtonhurst and the Rexine {ICI} and returned to Hyde centre via Talbot Road, Bennett Street, Old Road and Newton Street. The other bus did the same route in reverse.Tomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04167792394551286975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8599481671908734427.post-36699120763476280642011-06-06T19:56:06.718+01:002011-06-06T19:56:06.718+01:00I used to catch the No.15 home from school in the ...I used to catch the No.15 home from school in the early 70's.

There's a photo of a no. 15 bus turning out of Talbot Road in the <a href="http//www.tameside.gov.uk/history/archive.php3" rel="nofollow">Tameside Image Archive</a> which suggests that the route went: Newton Street-Lodge Lane-Ashton Road-Talbot Road, but it does say 'circular route' on the Tameside photo so presumably that involved running also along Victoria Street.Dave Williamsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8599481671908734427.post-91761846612314271482011-06-06T16:13:31.947+01:002011-06-06T16:13:31.947+01:00Thanks David :)
