wodger Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 I do not know if the Salutation Inn is still there now. But it turned into a Gay Club at one time. Then there was the Gate Pub a little further down the road. Our house was next door to the then swap shop. Franks right on the corner of Whitworth Lane. Now our once front room is the corner of the Police Station. Remember Hilltop Dairy. Barry the owner at the time used to give us a lot of freebies. Next door to that was the dole office. There used to be massive lines waiting for their dosh. Not too many unemployed then and this small office looked after all attercliffe. Lots of good times down the cliffe. How times have changed. The Arab Coffee Bars on the corners ( Just about every corner had an Arab Cafe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
