This image produced many comments; including Shiela Cotterill: “<\/strong> My grandparents lived in Carlin how , Mary Ann Glasper ( nee Pearson and Bell latterly. My mother would take us there at every school holiday, we lived near Manchester. My grandad Tom Bell sometimes allowed us to go in the Bullitt, I remember a man who had one arm!! Not his name though they called him bandit, does anyone remember my grandparents?”; whilst Pat Buxton told the Archive: “The picture has my Grandad, he is the man on the right at the back wearing a hat. His name was Robert Madden (Bob). He was an engine driver at the works and lived at 16 Rawlinson Street. He had three children with his first wife Harriet, they were Dorothy,Robert and Walter (my dad). With his second wife he had a daughter, Sheila. He was a member of the \u201cBuffs\u201d although I don\u2019t know much about this society and also Carlin How club. I will try to enclose a picture of him in Rawlinson Street with my Dad.” Tony Atkinson tells us: “The third gentleman standing from the left is my grandfather Alfred Atkinson”.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
