Local shops - Broadway at Nuthurst Road
Following Broadway's construction in the late 1920s, a small row of shops was constructed in the south-west corner of the two roads' intersection. A wider variety of shops was constructed slightly further north where Broadway meets Moston Lane East.

View north from Nuthurst Road bridge 1977
A train from Leeds to Manchester Victoria (despite the destination shown) has recently left Moston station. The line runs in a deep cutting from Hollinwood Avenue to Nuthurst Road passing under a pipe bridge in the middle distance which carries Manchester's drinking water supply from Thirlmere to Audenshaw Reservoir. Prior to 1973, Moston Junction signalbox was located immediately left of the train's front cab. The top right-hand view is dominated by Chadderton electricity generating station and its cooling towers.

Local shops - Broadway
Some of the shops south of Broadway Baths have mainly sustained the same trades for the past 50 years. Under its 1960s owners, the grocery store was something of an innovator, providing both the first "mini market" (i.e. a diminutive self-service supermarket) in the local area and "Green Shield" trading stamps, an early form of loyalty scheme. The bookmakers seems to have been there for ever.
