Hi, my name is Mark and I live with my Partner Sarah and daughter Freya in North Bolton, Egerton. We moved here in early 2004.
Here is a link (bottom of page before News Headlines) to a Gallery showing the nearby Pinnacle Drive / Bedford Street Estate, EGERTON (BL7 9XD) before and after 1999/2000.
Before 1999 (not sure how long?), there used to be a Swimming Baths on Pinnacle Drive (according to a GuestBook entry by Norma, the Baths was in fact on Water Street, makes sense really...) and a small collection of shops on Bedford Street (opposite the Globe Pub - now The Thomas Egerton as of November 2006).
This is the estate opposite the 'Egerton News' Newsagents and close to the Egerton Cricket Club.
Pinnacle Drive / Bedford Street are just off Blackburn Road near Egerton House and about 1 mile past the Last Drop Village right turn off Blackburn Road (next to the Dunscar Soldier Remembrance Monument / Statue War Memorial at Blackburn / Darwen Road junction).
