Hinds Head
The Empress Cinema was built on the site of Ash Farmhouse in 1939. It closed in 1959 after which the old cinema became became the Empress Cabaret Club and other parts of the building were used by the Flamingo Coffee Jive Club. The Empress Bingo Club opened in 1961. In 1967 it was ravaged by fire. It re-opened in 1968 as the Poco a Poco Club and Stockport Casino. In 1983 it became Chesters and in 1987 it was demolished following a fire.

Heaton Moor: a southbound electric train
This is not a very good photograph, but it may be of interest in showing the early days of 25 kV electric services on the West Coast Main Line. It was nearly another two years before through services from Manchester to London Euston began. The stylish blue AL1 Class locomotives were certainly of interest to 15-year-old trainspotters like me and I sneaked out of my uncle's house on Tatton Road South (on his wedding day) for this picture, pressing the shutter too soon as I always did when photographing moving trains. Left to right on the other side of the railway are houses on Lawton Road, Wingate Road and Brantwood Road.
