Bguley Bottoms - the Baguley Brook runs through this woodland, and flows on to the south (right of the picture), forming the old boundary between Baguley (Bowdon parish) and Nothen Etchells (Sharston, Benchill, Brownley Green, &c.) which were in Northenden parish.

Spinney Road - this estate of then ultra-modern flat-roofed "art deco" houses seems to be in the early stages of construction. Given the climate in this part of the north-west of England, it's hardly surprising that the fashion of flat-roofed houses didn't really catch on!

The Royal Oak Primary School

Royal Oak Road

I think this is the old, rural-style, Royal Oak pub. It was demolished in the 1930s and replaced by a new one in the then contemporary style. That too has now bitten the dust fairly recently (2014), another instance of the increasing number of pub closures.
