"The Slide", Weston Road, Runcorn

The Slide

The start of the Road to Weston and Weston Point was called "the slide". The road here descends and curves to the right when coming from the Weston direction; past "The Elms", the large house which can be seen. The main change has been the removal of the wall on the right, although the wall foundations can still be seen. Also there have never been any working horses here for many years!

I received you letter and was very glad to hear you are well as it leaves me at present. Aunt is about the same only she varies with the weather. I hope the apron is the right size. So with love I remain your loving Brother Joe
