This postcard of Beech Walk in Leigh was widely circulated in 1913. Picture supplied by Michael Caine
THIS week we take a look back at a 1900s postcard of Beech Walk in Leigh.
The site opposite Pennington Hall Park is a renowned beauty spot.
The street was a popular place for courting couples to walk along.
They would often meet at the lamppost to go on a picturesque stroll.
The postcard has a geometrically-influenced Art Deco border and shows a line of trees, which were taken down between 1900 and 1904 after becoming diseased.
The postcard was widely circulated in 1913.
