Join us on an adventure around Sale. Let’s take a look at some of the places in our past videos. I’m cycling throughout August for Prostate Cancer UK. One in eight men will get prostate cancer in their lifetime, and it’s the UKs third biggest cancer killer. But it doesn’t have to be this way. I’m raising money to help fund lifesaving research for men and their families affected by the disease.

Hi Paul, surprised you didn't mention the Bigfoot sighting at Walton Park lol. Check out the account on the BBR interactive map. Google Deborah Hatswell and you should find it…Bigfoot in Britain?…Yep, it's a thing..It's a big thing…Salford is a hotspot, Buile hill, Walkden areas..All on the map.
When I was about 18 yrs old I walked through the tunnel linking the cemeteries for a dare at 2.30am. It was a moonlit night and once in the tunnel all I could see were headstones at both ends. It was completely dark in the tunnel, I was more concerned about what I wasn’t able to see in the tunnel, like a hole that I could fall into or potential obstacles. I’m now 73 and often think what stupid thing to have done…. Love the video by the way.
Great video as always! Do you know any information about a house called 'boothroyd' opposite Hunston Rd on Washway Rd. I've tried but never had much luck? Keep up the great work!
Another very informative video. I have never visited Sale cemetery but I have driven over Marsland Road hundreds of times and never knew the two sides of the cemetery were linked by tunnel. Blooming obvious now when I think about it! Great stuff, thanks again. Donation made. Thank you for supporting Prostate Cancer.
Pass that place many times in the week Paul, very interesting the people that are located there.great video 📸
