Thanks again to Jean for making this post possible.... feel free to share your post cards, pictures or memories with us. Also, if you find old North Cheshire Heralds, or Church Programs as we could certainly make some posts out of them.

Good post today of the postcards showing Werneth Low. I've attached a photo I took in April of 'Four Cross Road', and apart from the cars and telephone box it doesn't look much different now.
Great postcards Tom. I'm sending you a photo I took in April of the place shown as 'Four Cross Roads', and if you drove the cars away and removed the telephone box it wouldn't really look much different than it did then.
ReplyDeleteCheers Dave .. I've added your picture and comment directly into the post and put the Four Lanes postcard next to your picture as a comparison..
ReplyDeleteI liked that comparison shot, Tom. Hope all goes well for you and your team.
ReplyDeleteHi Abe..
ReplyDeleteThank you for dropping by..... when I first started to do a blog of any kind I had no idea where it would lead me. You and your blogs, your writing and your pictures have always been an inspiration to me and I still drop by to see what you are up to now.
