Runcorn History

[@SpotlessLeopard]

Really enjoyed this. That strange happy yet melancholic feeling that nostalgia brings.

I was about 12 and my dad used to cycle with me from the Dingle to the transporter bridge in Widnes and then we cycled to Birkenhead where we got the ferry back to Liverpool. we stopped at a few pubs on the way and whilst dad was in the pub, he brought lemonade out to me. It was a special Sunday treat for me.

38:00 where it all went wrong… the new town

Everybody loves Runcorn, it's where the chemicals come from...

[@kevintraynor4508]

All them farms destroyed for nothing. Why didn't they spend the money on the areas at Liverpool that needed a make over at the time instead of building a new town. Bet Runcorn was beutifull before the development. I sadly was not born then so only have these vids of what Runcorn used to be like.

Yes my father was born in Runcorn in 1927! The rolling pastures and farms all cleared for thousands of scousers! Ruined!
