Submitted by Dr Neil Clifton

Name	Wesley Terrace, Heald Lane, Weir, Lancashire
Distance	0.05 miles from OL13 8NZ
Description	These well-built terrace houses, (the local stone is some of the finest in the world) date from the end of the nineteenth century, and would have originally been occupied mostly by workers at the local Irwell Springs Bleach and Print works. The Methodist chapel, from which they were named, stood further west almost opposite where the photographer is standing. No trace of this remains now.
