If this has sparked a memory, why not share it here?

Lived on Salford Brow for a few years then moved to Mazeppa Street. Had many happy hours playing on the hills..After Mazeppa Street was pulled down a lot of people were relocated to Whitefield, Hulme, and other places. Never was the same after we moved!
My mum and dad got married here in 1964, John Jackson and Joan Davenport, it was gorgeous inside. As a child I lived on Salford Brow and spent many happy days around the area :)
My sister Linda got married to a bloke from the Isle of Man on the Christmas Eve and then went off to live over there, within a couple of weeks the reverend of the church convinced me to become a "Choir Boy", it lasted about 4 months, he sacked me for stamping on a mouse while he was giving his sermon, I don't think he saw the funny side off it. Is there anyone else from the old Salford Brow still about? I would love to hear from you. Regards, Norman.
