Located close to the "up market" Hale Barns these thatched houses have seen many changes since they were built, as a comparison of the 1940's OS map and the current one will show. Only yards behind me when I took this photo traffic was roaring past on the M56 motorway and not far away, about 500 yards beyond the car, stands the perimeter fence of Manchester International Airport.
