EDITORS COMMENTS
Four Lane Ends, Shaw and Crompton, Lancashire: A Glimpse into the Past This photograph, taken in 1906, transports us back in time to the crossroads of Market Street, Milnrow Road, Beal Lane, and Rochdale Road in the quaint village of Shaw and Crompton, Lancashire. The name "Four Lane Ends" refers to the four roads coming together at this point, creating a bustling hub of activity. At the right corner of the intersection, the Pineapple Inn proudly stands, its red-brick facade adorned with the distinctive pineapple sign – a symbol of hospitality that has welcomed travelers and locals alike for over a century. The pub, still in business today, has been a cherished part of the community for generations, serving as a gathering place for friends, families, and neighbors. The cobblestone streets and horse-drawn carriages add to the charm of this idyllic scene. The horse and carts, laden with goods, would have been a common sight as the village thrived on textile manufacturing and agriculture. The tranquility of the image belies the industrious spirit that once defined this community. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are reminded of the rich history that lies within the heart of Shaw and Crompton. The passage of time has not diminished the allure of Four Lane Ends, and the Pineapple Inn continues to be a beacon of warmth and connection in this historic village.
