I don't think the brothels are a "notable feature". I removed the line that mentioned them but it has reappeared. Let's get this sorted out. Cpc464 00:18, 7 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The extract relating to massage parlours on Palatine Road was not mentioned under 'Notable Features', but is described in the History section.

In fact, there are two massage parlours on this high street and to delete this fact is censorship of genuine information. Furthermore, it is only the user who has deleted the above information, who has referred to these establishments as, "Brothels". Does the user have extra information that he would like to share, but feels it is inappropriate to mention?

I removed the mention purely because it appeared to be advertising and was non-notable. I would remove a mention of Woolworths for the same reason, for example. It would really help if you would get a user ID - edits made by random IP addresses are usually examined with extra vigour by Wikipedians. Cpc464 13:50, 27 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

There's a song by the Doves called "Northenden" - it says "The kids are deranged / They love guns and kidnap / That's just the way we do things here." Not knowing Northenden myself, could anyone help me to establish a connection between the song and the place? Maybe the song could be mentioned under "Trivia" or the like.

You can assume the connection, because "M62 Song" by Doves was recorded in Northenden. The M62 passes over the River Mersey where it passes through Northenden, and the band recorded it under the overpass, if you follow me.

The M62 does not pass through Northenden! You are thinking of the M60 or the nearby M56.

They did record "M62 song", supposedly named for the motorway it was recorded under, which the Last Broadcast wiki page seems to suggest is in Northenden. Like you say, that motorway goes nowhere near the area. They did record a song Northenden as well. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 194.74.31.115 (talk) 10:53, 26 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

How about mentioning in the places of interest the recent archaeology work at the mill. Perhaps the Church could also be mentioned? I believe its the head church in the area. Inside the church there is a gravestone, which it is believe (due to the marks on the top, and its supposed age) that it was used by the Cavaliers in the civil war to sharpen their swords.

the Social club was built circa 1920 with donations collected from the local village folk, the roof is a hangar from Manchester Airport, and the club was originally named The Old Comrades Club. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.56.113.22 (talk) 19:46, 22 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
