My mum and dad owned the off-licence on the corner of 20 Sussex Street. I went to St Bonifaces school in the early 60s

[@annemarie091454]

I also went to St Bonifaces in early 1960. I remember vividly Ms Battle, and junior infants teacher Miss Fleming and a great teacher Mrs Murray. I lived on Garden Street

[@tonguetwisters]

Miss Battle..wow I'd forgotten her name. Do you remember Alma Cottgrave? Sadly she died in a house fire. She was my best friend at St Bonifaces

[@terencegilmartin]

My grandad lived off cannon street facing adelphi lads club in walter southern house and all these years later ive just learned that walter southern founded the club in 1888 i had the greatest years of my life at my grandads - but alas when i recently returned to lower broughton i may as well be in milton keynes or on the moon - you decide !!!

@ilovemoz My best friend used to live on Frederick Street which is (or was) just off Sussex Street. We used to hang around all of these places up until 1971 when he moved. I went to school at Broughton Modern and Saint Boniface.

From papers I have seen, my grandparents lived at ; 66 Robert Hall St. ,52 Granville St., 34 Claremont St., 88 Derby Street. Those anyway, probably in central Salford I am thinking.
