i spent my early years (1-3) living in bennett street flats,which were also known as Heywood House.....
i know that they were built on the site of Citys old ground,so say the reason why i was the first in
my family to be a Blue!!
any one have any memories,i believe they were demolished late 60s/early 70s??

The only connection that I have with the flats is that an aunt and uncle of mine lived there in the fifties, before they moved to South Africa. I don't recall visiting them, though.

Hi Bluemikeaway. Heywood house flats were like Masonettes. One above the other. They have been replaced with new houses now & are long gone. However. If you go onto Machester city council local images. Search Heywood house Ardwick/Gorton there are a couple of pictures on there? I know this is an old post. But you may read it one day. Charlie

Does anyone remember a Robert Haslam who lived at 199 Heywood House? I know he lived there in 1949 but not sure how long he lived there...
