Lancashire Lookup Requests / Re: Hathershaw Swimming Baths Oldham
« on: Friday 22 January 10 18:11 GMT (UK)  »
Hi Mavis
Not had much joy finding that photo yet, although I'm still looking. I think it was taken when they were runners up in the Lancashire Water polo league. I have been on their web site but haven't found anything about it yet. I had a medal of the event and I've no doubt your dad did, I gave mine to my son to pass on to his, and I have asked him to find out what year it was and may be I can get more info from the papers if I know the date. My mother was called Edith which I thought your mother was also. Didn't you have a sister Marlene, what happened to her? We could keep in touch by e-mail would be easier, mine is tern@sky.com. It is a really small world isn't it. I presume by your name on here, you play a lot of Golf, not got into that yet. Lovely to hear from you.
Best regards

Ernie

Hello Mavis,
 My Father ( Fred Clayton) also played on the water polo team at Hathershaw at the same time as yours, they were also very good friends and I remember going to your house on Third avenue. I did have a copy of that photo but unfortunately I can't find it just yet. I can tell you that Hathershaw Baths no longer exists, it was demolished years ago and plans were put in to build a Mosque on the site.
I still live in Oldham and I will make my way round there to see what has happened to the site.
I get daily e-mails from my cousin who lives in Sydney, she married an ex rugby player out there David Bolton may be you have heard of him.
Good to hear from you, please keep in touch and if you have any other questions regarding Oldham
I will be more than welcome to help you.
Best regards and Happy New Year
Ernie Clayton
