Wellington-Road-area memories

  • Derek and Nora Durose

    Nora Durose, aged 79, had lived in Waterloo Street almost all of her life. Derek joined her when they were married 39 years ago. Here, Derek talks to us about the pain of leaving their home, but is positive about the future now that they have been rehoused.

“It looks absolutely brilliant, as good as a new house! It makes me feel proud to live here. ”

“I want to see the residents of this area having a voice and RENEW to take account of their views. ”
Steven Pritchard, Cobridge
