Westwell's Bakery
Westwell's Bakery on Peel Street was opened in 1952 by Arthur Westwell. Arthur had been helping out in his Aunty's shop, Blacks in Droylsden, from the age of 10. At 22 he opened his first shop on Ashton Old Road before moving to Peel Street. When Arthur retired in 1990 the business was taken over by Kevin Rutter and his wife Debbie. Kevin had started working there as a Saturday boy in 1972. http://web.archive.org/web/20161013100311/http://westwellsbakery.co.uk/aboutus.htm

Lock 17, Ashton Canal
Like Lock#18 (Image]), Lock 17 was made into a double lock in the 1820s to ease the congestion on this heavily used stretch of waterway. As with the lock at Fairfield, only the right hand channel is still in use.
