Old signpost on Lumn Road
Old signpost on Lumn Road
This pre-Worboys sign erected by Hyde Corporation lies on the T-junction with Queen Street. At one time traffic from Dowson Road could cross Market Street into Queen Street SJ9594 : End of Dowson Road which led down past the James North factory. Lorries leaving the factory had to turn right onto Queen Street which was one-way from Market Street to Lumn Road. Now, Queen Street SJ9594 : Queen Street only runs as far as Douglas Street. There is no vehicular access across into the school and the new houses built on the old factory site. At this end, Queen Street is reduced to being an access passage to the rear of houses on Lumn Road.
