Birth:
Pits o' th' Moor" is a now almost-forgotten name for an area of land lying
between Winton and Patricroft. The latter two places are now districts
within the town of Eccles, but back in 1842, they were two separate hamlets
which lay within the Registration Sub-District of Barton-upon-Irwell. The
area in question was part of a triangle of land bounded by the roads known
to-day as Worsley Road, New Lane and Liverpool Road. By the end of the 19th
century, this area was fully developed with terraced housing and two or
three small factories, but in 1842 it was still mostly open farmland. The
first 1848 Ordnance Survey map of the area clearly shows it as labelled
"Pits o' th' Moor". The "pits" in question were almost certainly old marl
pits, which had filled with water, and are shown on the map as ponds.
