I grew up in Shaw

Remember the Big Chef at Wren's Nest full of bikers on a weekend, remember sittin in the shelter on Dunwood Park drinkin cider n smokin? Or when the Weavers was the Railway and when the Cricketers was the Moulders Arms?

How about when This Is It was located at the top of Market St., or when Dee Mill was standing? Recall the bike races that used to be held round Shaw centre each year, the Christmas parades that used to be held on Market St. with floats and a brass band playing outside the Blue Bell ?

Those were the days, eh?
