EPW016454 ENGLAND (1926). Middleton railway station and the town centre, Middleton, 1926

Middleton Corporations electricity power station, started generating DC440 v / 220v in 1902.

I need to correct myself . This was the position of the original "iron mission " Holy Innocents daughter church , however in 1921 this was converted into St Micheals Parochial hall (article Middleton Guardian) used for dances , youth club and 2nd Middleton Scout group . Further to the east on Kenyon Lane is the newly constructed replacement Holy Innocents Church . Photo EPW016450 shows both these at once , a current parishioner now assures me the demolition photos of an arched roofed church are the 1925 built Holy Innocents about 1978 . Kelvin

Old Vicarage, St Micheals See comments regarding the first "million fund" brick built church, "Tonge Parsonage" appears on the 1844 OS map here and on all since, in the main the bricks look old (except some of the kitchen) so this was probably built with the first 1838 church.
