Re: Knowlemere Street dance
Think I could qualify as an Old Git being there 1958 onwards??? Where would "Arts" come from?? Arcs I can understand? I used to be there practically every day!!One memory was Sunday afternoons when we used to come out of there at the end of the session blinking at the light! Clifford kept the lighting very subdued!! :-)
Wasn´t there a dancer there called Pauline Woods? I can remember being injured by her stiletto heel whilst she was doing a very energetic quickstep!! If you are still out there Pauline, you owe me one!! |

Re: Knowlemere Street dance
I was there in 1959 too. We usually said ,we were going "up Knowlmere Street" more than "th´Arcs". But it was known as both. I have seen it spelt both Arcadian and Arcadium.
Whatever!! It was a great place to be and I loved it!! :-) |
Re: Knowlemere Street dance
Off Licence wasn't on Malt Street, it was on the corner of Knowlmere Street and Milnshaw Lane. Chemist was on the corner of Whalley Road and Knowlmere Street, became a wool shop, then Everett's fruit and veg/grocer's shop, which had been at the very bottom of Malt Street where it met Argyle Street. Out side off licence was both a phone box and a mail box. Think the place at the bottom of Malt Street on the left had been a beer bottling plant before the garage took it over
