I lived near Joe and Kath Harrison, nee Hutchinson, when they lived on Wincobank Lane. I think Kath's parents ran the Alex in the 60's.

 

Dougie Nadin used to cut my hair, my Nan lived on Moss Street, I'd go down to Dougie's from her house.

Dougie passed away quite a while ago. Sorry I can't be specific but I think maybe 10/15 years ago.
