Houses in Mossley

We are staying in Mossley for the next photo, which shows one of Mossley's stone-built terraces of houses. This is Lorne Street in Top Mossley. The small forecourt gardens at the front of the houses made them something to aspire to for those in neighbouring streets whose front doors opened onto the pavement. The charm of the houses is reduced by the "architectural acne" of the ubiquitous satellite dishes that sprout from the stones.
