Where is Buile Hill Park??

[dazzlindarrent]

Great video, but also quite sad ..............when i work around this area now, all I see is Halal food, depressed people, unemployment, poverty, spongers and run down housing association houses..........and the gangs of scally's that roam around

@warrenpeterbithell

Fascinating , did you recognise anyone , or does your family recognise anyone? Several of my family lived on the street at that time. Gilli

Rock on Broughton Modern (class of 72), China King, Poets Corner, Dirty Dick & Vinegar Vera, candle factory fire, that Italian ice cream from Lower Broughton Road, Broad Street & Cross Lane shops, Disc City and fog! I was born in Burnley but grew up in Lower Broughton / Pendleton. My roots are Salford!

youd be arrested if you took pictures of kids now .......isnt that sad

[Smiler12008]

Notice how spotless the whole place is? No litter, kids all turned out immaculately, houses well looked after.

What the hell went wrong?

Thanks for posting this, I was born in Lower Broughton 1958 and it looked just like this.

Not a mp3 player or mobile phone in sight, just young people playing and enjoying themselves.

[MrRedcap999]

This is a fantastic video. Great snap shot of life way back when, now sadly lost forever.

wow

[UKArchiveTV]

Yes, great clip. The NW Film Archive would be very interested too I'm sure :) And do I see an interlacing artefact, could this be restored even better? If you run a deinterlace filter after capture you can get rid of that stripe effect, assuming it isn't on the source.

[profutube01]

@UKArchiveTV

I think it may be on the source , it was very neglected before it came into my hands. Damaged badly and moldy. It would be nice if it could be improved. Thanks Gilli

[gillimcutube]
