Factory Street Closed for Resurfacing from Tomorrow

November 17, 2019 by Lee 1 Comment

If you often use Factory Street to get through Ramsbottom, you’ll need to go round from the 18th of November as the carriageway is being resurfaced. Many thanks to Alan Groves for pointing this out to me via the Twitter account.

Signs have gone up indicating that Factory Street will be closed from the 18th of November for around a week (allowance for up to 24th of November).

This will have the potential for some knock on traffic and delays so please take this into account when travelling around Ramsbottom from tomorrow. At least it’s only a week though.

Sam has a bright future planned for The Major

Sam Gibbs and her husband Christian took over The Major in Ramsbottom on the 4th of November and before that happened Sam got in touch and I said I’d love to have her on the show.

Not only is The Major a popular local pub, it’s one of the first pubs I ever went to in Ramsbottom and I know lots of the regulars are keen to see what they have planned.

Ramsbottom Young People’s Community Choir launches

Having launched just last week, the Ramsbottom Young People’s Community Choir is fresh and looking for children to come and have a go.

I talk to Karen Lindop on the podcast this week and she tells me that the Ramsbottom Young People’s Community Choir was created when one of the children basically asked Karen to put it together as she was not old enough to join the adult choir.

Karen tells me that the hope is that the children will be able to join in the performance near Christmas and as such, the sooner you join the quicker you’ll be able to learn the songs.

The choir is for children aged from 7 to 13 and it takes place at St Andrews Church on Tuesday nights during term time from 5:15pm until 6:15pm, you can drop your child off, go have a coffee/wine or even a shop and come back an hour later.

It’s just £6 per session or you can block book 4 sessions for £20.

You can call or TXT Karen on 07957 814 298 or you can email her at [email protected] to get more information.

Visit Ramsbottom with 360 Photography

November 3, 2019 by Lee Leave a Comment

A couple of years ago I spent some time making 360 degree style photos of areas in Ramsbottom. Most of the time I tried to cover areas where Google Street View doesn’t and almost all of the photos I took were when I was taking a walk with my son.

You might notice some familiar places, like Ramsbottom Train Station, House of Beer and Market Place.

You can check out all of my photos here on the Ramsbottom 360 Album which I’ve been adding to over time.

Ramsbottom roadworks could last another two weeks

October 29, 2019 by Lee Leave a Comment

Traffic was snarled up through Ramsbottom this morning causing massive delays and tailbacks due to the temporary lights despite some people saying the lights were pointless as nothing was happening at the time.

Temporary lights at the top of Bury New Road

Ramsbottom commuters have once again been brought to their knees by temporary lights and roadworks. It’s gotten to the point where I’m pretty sure the lights are just kept in a shed somewhere locally to be brought out in another week or two once these are finished.

One Network states that the roadworks are expected to last until the 15th of November.
