My grandmother, born 1900 in or around Oldham, England. Here she is about 23 years old. She loved to perform but, in end, like most young ladies of that time, she married and had a family (that was good for me). #shaw #oldham #manchester #england #photography #sepia

Old enough to remember 2015. #Ukip lost #Oldham West ByElection. Farage alleged he had evidence of "fraud on a third-world scale". #UKIP officials later admitted there was no evidence. No formal complaint was filed with Police or Electoral Commission. It's what losers do.

1952 Oldham official handbook. Here's two of the council's new post-war house building schemes - Derker and Fitton Hill. I can hear the photographer cursing that mutt. @municipaldreams.bsky.social @lccmunicipal.bsky.social @inclinepressbooks.bsky.social #housing #oldham ↘️ flic.kr/p/2qEUXxT

The cover of the c.1952 Official Handbook to the County Borough of Oldham - cover dominated by the town's coat of arms - this was a typical design for such books. The coat of arms has four owls and the motto "Sapere Aude".

Council Housing was a huge issue - in the inter-war years towns such as Oldham had made a start on slum clearance of the many Industrial Revolution houses that were insanitary and overcrowded. Oldham was a child of the Victorian cotton industry and had many such houses. By tthe 1950s after wartime delays the issue of housing became critical and the town, like many others, built many new estates such as these here. The upper picture is of Oban Crescent in Derker, houses grouped around a cul-de-sac. Lower shows a crescent of homes in Fitton Hill - with a dog centre-stage.

This social club was built in 1937 for the workers of a nearby paper mill. It was abandoned when the mill closed in 2001. There was a bar where workers could unwind with a pint and enjoy a game of snooker after a hard day in the mill. There was also an […] [Original post on mstdn.social]
