Skywatch Friday: Hatton Grange


Hatton Grange is a residential care home on the site of the former Hyde Police Station. It occupies the land bounded by Oldham Street, Croft Street, Henry Street and Onward Street. It is named after local boxer Ricky Hatton.

On the day in question a bright winter sun was shining in the afternoon but storm clouds were gathering in the East.

  3. I thought it was named after George Hatton, former mayor of Tameside?

  4. Dave - don't know but I'm fairly sure that Ricky did the "official" opening of it.
