This was the original course of Shady Lane before the construction of the railway line and the station in the 1860s.

Maple Road (this part of the road - the section from the point where it veered south-east near Beccles Farm - was built over with housing in the early 1950s)

I lived in what you refer to as Beccles Farm from 1956. It seemed to be called this only briefly, I knew it as Birtles Farm. I'm currently researching its history so any comments would be most welcome.

James, I got the name "Beccles Farm" from the 1875 and 1910 Ordnance Survey maps - see my response to the chat message which you sent me on this site. I assumed that Beccles Wood (west of the farm and still there, very near the house in which I grew up; it seems to have been planted out around the middle of the 19th century) took its name from the farm and was on its land.

Woodcourt - built in the style of a French chateau for the Kilvert lard-manufacturing family; later a pub; subsequently demolished and replaced with flats.

I remember Maple Farm being demolished; late 1950s I think.

If I remember rightly, Maple Farm was demolished a little while before the Michael's Hey Parade shops and flats - and the Trades and Labour Club to the east of it - were built. I think that was somewhere round 1954 or 1955, as I was still in primary school when the new local library opened - facing Maple Road, but part of the Michael's Hey Parade block - and we stopped getting the ancient converted bus which had served us as a "travelling library" once a week.

As named on the "Geographia" local street map in the early 1950s. Eighty years earlier, and on into the early 20th century, the ordnance survey map gives its name as "Redbrook House". By the 1960s, it appears to have been called "Rimmersdale".

I thought this was Redbrook House.

I can recall playing with the children (2 girls and a boy) who lived in the house back in 1955.

York House was also known as Rimmersdale.

I took the name from my street map bought back in the late '50s; but I remember cycling past the house often as a teenager and had a sense that York House wasn't the name on the gate at the time!

At the turn of the 19th/20th century, the ordnance survey shows this property as "Redbrook House", so it seems to have had more than one change of name over the years.

Hi Hazel and John,



Ordnance Survey 25" map, 1876, 1898 and 1910, "Redbrook House", then "York House" on the edition published in 1935, where it is also labelled by the OS as a nursing home.
