News, Information and an award winning Podcast right from the heart of Ramsbottom
Electricity Northwest have been busy in Ramsbottom recently.
Having recently been causing some delays whilst fixing a fault outside the Fusiliers pub on Bolton Road West (completion date has now been extended from the 21st to the 23rd) they are now attending a fault on Dundee Lane.
Tonight crews were seen excavating to repair the mains cable fault and one network indicates that the works will remain in place for a couple of days.
A local resident made me aware of an incident involving First Impression dry cleaners on Bridge Street in Ramsbottom.
These photos were taken around 5:30pm on January 21st.
Hopefully not too much damage has been caused and everyone’s clothes were safe.
Tre Ciccio have provided a statement regarding the article in Altrincham Today:
Update: The landlord of the Ramsbottom Tre Ciccio has indicated this via social in regards to the report in Altrincham Today:
Tre Ciccio enter administration reports Altincham Today
I was shocked at this, and as the article itself states: ” The news will come as a major surprise for many, with Tre Ciccio seemingly having proved one of the town’s success stories”
I am conscious that running a restaurant is extremely difficult, especially in these times given recent similar reports in the news regarding Jamie’s Italian and Pizza Express
Initially I thought that this was just affecting the Altrincham restaurant however the article states:
“Patrick Lannagan and Conrad Pearson of Mazars LLP, the accounting and advisory firm, have been appointed as joint administrators for the Moss Lane restaurant, as well as its two sister restaurants in Ramsbottom and Bramhall.”

Altrincham Today is not a publication I’m familiar with and there’s nothing on Companies House yet from what I can see.
The article also states:
No redundancies will be made while this process takes place…. Trading at the Altrincham and Ramsbottom restaurants will continue as normal while we assess the financial position of the businesses.

I first spoke to Rowan three years ago, almost to the day, on episode 84 for Ramsbottom Running Club shortly after it was formed.
At the time, there were 60 members of the Running Club, and now, it’s getting towards 400 members which is phenomenal, if you’re interested in getting involved in the Ramsbottom Running Club, which is an inclusive club, there’s even a walk and talk route now, then check out the Ramsbottom Running Club website.
This time I interviewed Rowan to find out more about the epic challenge he will be taking on this May. Rowan is running 20 Marathons, in 20 UK Cities, in 20 consecutive days…. just let that sink in a little.

Roadworks have yet again brought the roads around Ramsbottom to its knees causing some journeys as short as from the Hare and Hounds to Ramsbottom of just over a mile to take between 30 minutes and an hour.
The roadworks are being completed by Electricity Northwest for an underground high voltage cable (possibly related to the power outages that have occurred in the past few months nearby)
Every few months I seem to be reporting on how our roads are being suffocated by the sheer number of cars, yet new homes continue to be built and bus services get cut. Does anyone have the solution?
