Heanor's Dustbin Lorries - Ash Carts
replied on: 1/9/2005 2:38:26 PM

There is a 16mm film about showing the Ford 'T' model lorries in working conditions on the very old tip that is now the playing field behind Coppice Primary School, at the top of Roper Avenue.

The old road to Stoneyford turned off right to Langhams Farm. Nearby was a bungalow which he had built for his mother about 1952. The road continued, and then turned right, down the fields, and eventually came to a low railway brige UNDER the main railway line. The road went under and turned left towards the old tin church, and finally to Dovecoat Road.

Has anyone mentioned the Longden's from Stoneyford? There is a lot of cricket history there!
