Fay Wall on an evening of films about Salford
Tonight I went to a film show about the last hundred years of Salford , a collection of nine short films, the first was from 1901 moving film was new then.it shown a charity parade, people having fun in fancy dress some with bicycles the quality of the film was very good when we think how old it is,made by pioneering cameramen Mitchell and Kenyon what foresight they had,I wish they had had the technology for sound it would have been lovely to hear the people speak.
No history of Salford could leave out the opening and working of the docks,’England’s inland port where ships came from every corner of the world.and thousands of men earned their living working long hours, nobody got rich working on the docks,
There was scenes of the racecourse and people streaming across the Cromwell bridge which I recognised, all going to have a little flutter, or maybe a big flutter,if they felt lucky,
Buile Hill Park band stand I remember well,
What I don’t remember was yellow and white busses, it was supposed to be Salford,I know Salford is changing fast, but yellow and white busses, I was born 1925 and lived here all my life, did I sleep though a period of yellow and white busses?
