54 Poolstock Lane, Worsley Mesnes


This was the home of the Joseph Harrison (b. 1835) family in the 1891 census specifically Joseph, Ellen Ball (b. 1832) and all their daughters Elizabeth, Maria, Jemima, Ellen, Alice and Margaret.

Poolstock Lane is the continuation to the south and west of Poolstock (the road). Worsley Mesnes is the name of the area west of Poolstock. Number 54 is a few hundred metres west of Pool Street and therefore very close to the Poolstock neighbourhood and the Honeysuckle Inn. (See the 1894 Ordinance Survey Map, above)

There is currently a house at this address although it is difficult to ascertain whether this was the home of the Harrison Family some 115 years ago.
