L is for Lovers Alley


This photograph from about the 1920s shows a place somewhere in the Kingston area, but exactly where, I'm not sure.

To visit more ABC Wednesday L posts, visit Mrs. Nesbitt's Place.

  1. Nice post, Gerald. I like the green tint and the perspective.

  2. It suits the name - and also shows that some principles for pictures never change.

  6. Hi Gerald I think I know where this is. As a child we often walked down this path between Manchester Road Hyde and Dukinfield Road. It has changed a bit since the bypass, but I am sure I could find it again.

  7. the lovers lane is at the bottom of broomstare going to hyde its a path that is on the right of the river tame. the path near the two people that goes upwards to the right leads to the hyde canal if you turn left at the canal you get to dunkirk lane. and if you go right it leads you to hyde past throstle bank mill.
