On this day (16th March) 1989, we farewell my maternal grandmother Cissie who was born in Runcorn, Cheshire in 1914. She was an amazing pianist and organist and played at various churches over the years. #familyhistory #runcorn #genealogy

The area on Runcorn Hill that feels like the most likely spot that James Cooke climbed on board a flying saucer in 1957. Whilst walking home, I actually did see (and film) a Tic Tac shaped UFO, but more about that in the upcoming book!

East Lane House - "The old Dept of Employment Building", last used in 2005
A few years ago, I started a project on #Runcorn - this fell by the wayside, yesterday I took a trip there (a very 'grey' day) to see if it could be re-vitalised, the jury's still out!

Oxmoor local nature reserve, earlier today. It is among what was once marshlands along the left bank of the #RiverMersey east of #Runcorn, now largely covered over with industrial and logistical concrete. Oxmoor is a haven for warblers and more, helps manage local flooding. #Nature #Cheshire
I feel an affinity with my great grandfather Robert William Barnes (1887-1946). Born in #Oswaldtwistle, #Lancashire, he was the manager and then proprietor of the billiard hall in #Runcorn, #Cheshire. His obituary says he “had the capacity of making friends” just like me 😉
