CHILDREN ON HOUSING ESTATE (16mm, late 1970s)

Bizarre little 16mm at several speeds. Some kids kicking a ball about on a housing estate (no idea of the location but it's obviously in the UK) followed by kids playing in an old 1970s playground on the same estate. A biscuit for anyone who identifies the estate.

Looks a lot like Hulme in Manchester,but it could be anywhere.

@mistofoles Thanks - it's a start. It's going to need someone who recognises the actual place, and that's pretty unlikely (though I have had someone recognise a friend of theirs from 40 years before in one of my grandfather's old reels).

Umm... No idea but I have some photos of me as a kid on holiday in my dad's old hometown of Newcastle (upon Tyne) playing in those weird climbing frame things.

And while I'm here, thanks for a great YT channel, I always find your uploads interesting :)
