Norma Bannon (nee Bolton): Cyril - Times have changed a bit since the 'tea-dance' days. Wasn't the protocol that the young ladies had to sit like wall-flowers and wait to be invited to dance? So if some poor girl didn't get asked, she would have to sit and watch everyone else have...

not so borimg to me: Hutch isnt so boring to me. Any weekend you can find some sort of entertainment going on somewhere. The sports arena,memorial hall,grand prairie,cosmophere,salt museum,numerous big screen movies,ball games,car races. For a town this size,there is a lot to do if you go look for something to do. But the posters...

Susan Taylor (nee O'Reilly): Hi Sheila Thanks for telling me about this site, brings back many memories of Irlam and Cadishead. Someone mentioned Tramway Road Irlam, which lead to the Steelworks.

Sheila hilton: Reading through Marion Beeston's book 'Irlam & Cadishead' I noted that when Irlam Hall was demolished, 'there were some features well worth preserving.
