Its a cool place there chris.
have you seen the stocks opposite
Great pics, Tony. Yes I do remember the stocks which reminded me of the similar iron stocks on Water Street at Thornton near Crosby where the L5 Ribble Bus used to turn around by the Nag's Head. My Auntie Mary used to live at 28 Water Street so I was up there quite a lot as a lad.

Anyone know what is happening with the large house in sandfield park that has been derelict for years? I'm not sure what it's called but it can be seen from queens drive at the junction with derby lane (near west derby comp). There was a 'for sale' sign on it a few weeks ago, but it was taken down after just a couple of days. I hope it's been sold and wil be renovated soon.

Chris George's post on the previous page says it's open from April to October though. Although he did say the source of the information might not be too accurate.
Now that depends whether you are talking about the Courthouse or Sandfield Tower ;o) Sandfield tower is in a very poor state and with no floor thoughout the building, the City Council wouldn't let anyone even try for a guided tour.
I remember my visits in there, one in the darkest winter one morning and then a brighter morning in the summer.
