The properties on Brinnington Road that face what was the allotment site are still there as far as I know. You can see these by logging into Google maps - Streetview - 14 Brinnington Road  https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@53.417722,-2.144318,3a,37.5y,135.4h,85.36t/data=!3m4!1e1!3m2!1sE5IJ8UcLNX8DEFQg8mNZGQ!2e0

Then follow the road to the east.  The situation is now complicated by a motorway bisecting the area.
