pommie lass Posted December 4, 2015 Report Share Posted December 4, 2015 I have seen two topics about Lindy's pies and Tom Bowes but no one is saying exactly where they were. Can anyone tell me as Lindy's sounds familiar? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P J Posted December 4, 2015 Report Share Posted December 4, 2015 It wa next door to Tom Bowes clothes shop on Horsemarket Street, opposite the Hop Pole. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pommie lass Posted December 4, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 4, 2015 Thanks PJ. I don't really remember the Hop Pole or Tom Bowes but I do remember Lindy's. I thought that might be the other place where they had nice meat and potato pies. Just wanted to make sure. I am still waiting for someone to tell me what has replaced Waterworths in Bridge Street on the corner of Dolmans Lane. Do you know? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P J Posted December 5, 2015 Report Share Posted December 5, 2015 No sorry, but I imagine Dizzy or BazJ or Algy will. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evil Sid Posted December 5, 2015 Report Share Posted December 5, 2015 If you use google street view dolmans lane is still shown. https://www.google.co.uk/maps/place/Dolmans+Ln,+Warrington+WA1+2ED/@53.3886635,-2.5932712,3a,75y,142.2h,90.29t/data=!3m8!1e1!3m6!1s-qMIR7obaF9o%2FVXnAy96b8DI%2FAAAAAAAADbU%2FvFX1gi5bhwk!2e4!3e11!6s%2F%2Flh5.googleusercontent.com%2F-qMIR7obaF9o%2FVXnAy96b8DI%2FAAAAAAAADbU%2FvFX1gi5bhwk%2Fw203-h101-n-k-no%2F!7i10240!8i5120!4m2!3m1!1s0x487b023ea6e973a3:0xd67b409ca4608a6c?hl=en It is the entrance to the fromt of the market from bridge street on the left as you look at it there is an artist shop and hancock and woods and on the right is a charity shop and boots old building. Opposite is mcdonalds and a pawn/money for "unwanted items" shop. and across the passageway from those is an empty shop. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary Posted December 5, 2015 Report Share Posted December 5, 2015 Lindy's used to do the best ever cheese and onion cobs which were the size of a dinner plate It was opposite my mum's shop the Arts centre which was where Hatter's Row is now situated. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pommie lass Posted December 6, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2015 Thanks Evil Sid for that info and the link. Obviously the old Waterworths building was either knocked down or renovated to make way for the artist shop. Also thanks to Gary for the extra info on the location of Lindy's.

pommie lass Posted December 7, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 7, 2015 Back to Lindy's. I thought it was the pie shop I was thinking of but now I'm not so sure. The one I mean was on the left hand side going down Horsemarket St away from the town centre but Lindy's appears to be on the right hand side unless I'm getting my bearings wrong. My sense of direction is not very good . It does seem to be in the same general area though, not far from the old markets and the Barley Mow.
