ABC Wednesday: J is for John Street (Northern remnant)


When the roads on the north side of the centre of Hyde were demolished in the 1970s to make way for the M67 motorway, this small remnant of John Street survived. The four terraced houses at the end lie back-to-back with the former St Andrew's Mission which closed in the 1960s.

  1. John Street. I don't think I've ever heard of a John Street. For some reason that puts a smile on my face.

  5. Looks a comfortable place to live - as long as the motorway is not to close for noise.
