Tag: Bullough Moor

Community Spirit

I remember going to the Christingle Service at St Margaret’s Church which is still going now. It had a good community spirit. You couldn’t get a place at St Margaret’s School, my children went to Bullough Moor instead.

I arrived in 1972 and I’m still here.

About

The project will explore the stories of the communities who moved from the Manchester slum clearances during the 1950/60s to the original ‘overspill’ estates across Greater Manchester.
