Reader Comments for Moss Lane
There were a few little shops at the bottom of Moss Lane a grocers a little shop that sold almost everything and Florrie Walls haberdashery shop and a Post Office and Mrs Smiths Chip Shop where you could get delicious fish and chips. When we were older we helped to pick potatoes on Ardens farm at the top of the Lane. It was really countrified then one winter's day a flock of swans landed in Moss Lane there was one black one amongst the white ones. The lady next door to us took me out to feed them.
We bought milk from Ardens farm it came in a big churn on a horse-drawn cart it stopped outside the houses and we took a jug out and the farmer filled it with milk with a ladle. In those days it was possible to walk over the fields that were known as the Moss all the way to Walkden. We lived in Moss Lane during the war years we had an air-raid shelter in the living room called a Morrison shelter it was made of steel with mesh sides I remember sleeping in it during air raids the planes flew over the houses in Moss Lane making a droning sound heading to bomb Manchester and Salford they did bomb other places on the way a bomb dropped in Wardley woods intended for the Sandhole colliery near by, another bombed houses on Moorside road and properties in Pendlebury.
Food was rationed we had hens in the yard and vegetables growing in the garden. One day a lorry came up the Lane the men in it were taking the metal railings and gates from every garden. When the war ended we had street parties in Moss Lane red white and blue everywhere. After the war, the milk continued to be delivered by horse and cart also the greengrocery and the coalman with his horse. I have many memories of my childhood in Moss Lane.
Margaret.

Can You Help?Napps Way
15th April 2024
Why is the road called Napps Way (belonging to Napp, but minus an
apostrophe as is usual with such nomenclature)? Moreover, who or
what is, or was, “Napp” in the respective, possessive case?
Several years ago, I met an elderly man (probably in his late-eighties)
who lives on Bentham Drive, Liverpool 16, and during a conversation
with him whilst in a Northwest Passenger Transport Ambulance on the
way to the former RLUH (Royal Liverpool University Hospital), he told
me that he could remember (when he was a boy, living in Childwall,
Liverpool 16) that, “Where Napps Way is now, during WW2, there was
a two-man gun emplacement on the, then, open land to protect the
railway line passing over Childwall Valley Road - next to the railway
bridge - when suddenly, as they were loading a live “shell” into the gun’s
breach, the aforementioned “shell” accidentally exploded in the gun’s
breach killing both of the two soldiers, that had been manning the gun,
instantly! (Very sad, of course, but could - perhaps - two ghosts relating
to those two, very unfortunately and prematurely-killed soldiers have
haunted that place of their deaths ever since - and have any residents
of Napps Way - formerly and in its latest incarnation - seen two, WW2
(uniformed) soldiers unexpectedly appear in or near their homes?)
Mauritius Road

Why is Mauritius Road so called, since when and by whom? Does Greenwich have any particular links with Mauritius? Very interested to know. 🤞🏼
