Back on Hardy Lane a long time before now

We are on Hardy Lane again. 

The caption just says “view from Hardy Lane, near Hardy Lane Farm looking across to Jackson’s Boat in the distance.”

I don’t have a date but I guess it will be before the University took over the land and set to developing it as playing fields.

  1. When it was a meadow, I walked that lane as a young boy before Manchester CCCD tiped all the city's waste on it, brings it all back spent all day on the meadows

  2. Love going down the meadows, when I was a kid.

  3. The photo was just past the farm and on the right was where the draining ditches started
