Recent blog entry - HISTORIC LETTERBOX, Lower Broughton, SalfordAll through my childhood the letterbox on the corner of Camp Street and Grecian Street witnessed my comings and goings to St. Boniface’s School. It had withstood all the bombs of war time and protected its contents. Letters to loved ones on the war fronts were posted in it by all who cared, including my mother. From the time of Edward VII it has witnessed the changing face of Lower Broughton. Now, 100 years on, only The Carlton public house remains alongside this historic letterbox. If developments remove this last identifiable, solid reminder of the continuity of our roots how many of us can stand on Camp Street and say: ‘This place has history. This was my birthplace.’ Joseph McGarraghy 21/6/06 (Originally written for the Salford Star but not used.) I have posted a picture of this letterbox with the 'Salford' photos.
