This is Hacking Street in Nelson, Lancashire. Nelson is a smallish former cotton town in the North West of England.
It has a Hacking Street which is of interest, but it's claim to fame with regard to me in any case is its my birthplace. Not Hacking Street exactly but a couple of miles away in Fernlea Nursing Home in April 1960.
I don't think they named the street after me.
Hope not anyway as its very ordinary.
No houses on it, only about 50 yards long and containing a couple of factory type units and some fencing.
As we start on the journey to find streets, roads, avenues, and the like, with Hacking in the name I thought it best to start in my home town.
Things can only get better!!
You're going to be struggling! Only three Hacking Streets in UK according to Streetmap.co.uk. A Hacking Close in Langho near Blackburn.
ReplyDeleteI do San Lorenzo / St.Lawrence churches & towns which is easy peasy in Italy or Denton. But I don't do a blog, just take photos.
Expect Hacking Street near Albert Park, Salford for the next entry
There are a few more if you use google Maps. One in Darwen.
ReplyDeleteWill accept Road, Avenues, Lanes as well. Tricky though eh!
