Hi Steve

I've probably just missed you but just to point out a graveyard in Southsea that used to belong to a chapel now demolished. Not sure if it used now. It is just off the Wrexham to Brymbo road by a turning to Coedpoeth.
Just in case you miss it

cheers

Sorry but you seem to be a little confused about the 'Large' All Saints Church in Southsea.  The church which stood in the churchyard area was demolished due to subsidence around 1973/74?  The school room (which is across the road) was then consecrated to become 'All Saints Church'.  It is still in use....

Denbighshire / Re: The Lodge Brymbo
« on: Friday 19 April 24 11:13 BST (UK)  »
I lived in The Lodge (Wrexham) for many years during my youth.  I left in 1972 when I married and moved away.  Firstly, The Lodge address is "Lodge, Wrexham"  NOT BRYMBO. The building showing the Co-op was there for many years. Opposite this building was a shoe shop.  To the person who questioned about the houses at the side of the
Co-op:- No, the shop staff did not live in them, but they were private houses - including on the left was the village Police Station. This village (in its prime) was large - larger than the next village which was Southsea.  It boasted the following:- 2 x Florists / 1 x wholesale vegetable / Ivy's shop (which was extremely small) / Gallimore's shoe & boot repairer / Fish & Chip shop / Post Office / Ironmonger/ Shoe & Boot seller/repairs / small grocery - sweet shop / the Co-op.  It also boasted it's own police station / Doctor's surgery & 3 Chapels!  This is how I remember it ..... quite a large village!!  :)
