Hi Dexter, did you see this? Independent retailer announces plans to close WWW.STHELENSSTAR.CO.UK AN independent fashion store has announced plans to close. added 5 minutes later Maybe I missed someone previously mentioning it on here, but I didn't realise they are knocking down The Hardshaw Centre!

Phyll Posted April 21 Share Posted April 21 (edited) Just saw this recently so I thought I'd put it here, very sad to see part of my childhood disappear. Pictures show former church being torn down WWW.STHELENSSTAR.CO.UK THESE pictures show how demolition is underway at a former Catholic Church that has stood in a community for more than 80 years.

Big_Jeff_Leo Posted April 30 Share Posted April 30 I took this the other day when in Haydock. Conor Coady, ............, created by Liverpudlian John Culshaw, is part of a collaboration between FIFA and XBOX to showcase England players back in the towns and cities where they grew up. For Conor, the West End Road mural is right around where he grew up in Haydock and spans his life and love of football. Highlighting the journey to the pinnacle of his profession, it shows him playing for his first club Rainford Rangers right up to his call up for England. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
