That's brilliant thank you Barbara, we will (hopefully) be able to buy an old map of the area for my Uncle to take back home and take a photo of him stood next to the street sign. |

Have just had a chat to a friend who lives in the area, he says that, as far as he knows, Millgate is the area in the centre of Delph where the library is. He was not as sure about Knottshill but thought it to be on the hills above Delph village. |

P.S. If you'd prefer to be near Delph rather than stay in Uppermill there is the Old Bell Inn near the centre of Delph |

Delph and Uppermill are only a couple of miles apart, I'll have a look when I've got a moment if the place still stands, or have a look on an old map. Have you booked somewhere to stay? How will you be travelling? Just concerned that if you are travelling by train to Greenfield your Aunt and Uncle may struggle with the steps up the footbridge at Greenfield station. |

You've probably already booked somewhere to stay by now, but there is also the White Hart at Lydgate which is two miles from the centre of Uppermill |

Not sure about taxis re Uppermill. I am not in Saddleworth but do live in the Oldham area. I do have a friend who lives in the area and would have info re taxis etc but unfortunately they are out of the country on holiday until the week after next. If that is soon enough, I can get some further info for you then. |
