Today Charlestown Community Primary School and council houses sit in this area between Lissadel Street and Broughton Road East in Charlestown. Row after row of terraced houses used to be in its place, with one of the streets running north being Shuttleworth Street, on which the Lord Nelson stood. It was on the corner of Sligo Street and probably opened in the 1850s, becoming a Kays Atlas beerhouse in the early 20th century. By the 1930s, Stockport's famous Robinsons Brewery owned the Lord Nelson and did so until it finally closed in 1969 [1].

My late dad, Charles H. Hunt lived at 14 Sligo Street, Salford. Was wondering if anyone could please let me know if you knew him, as l'd like to hear from. My many thanks, his son Colin.
