The story of Didsbury in just twenty objects, chosen at random and delivered in a paragraph or more.
Now the caption gives a date of 1937, but the flats in the distance are Parrs Wood Court, which were built in 1939 and opened for sale in the following year.
That said it perfectly records a Parrs Wood in a more gentle and less busy time.
Location East Didsbury
