IOO YEARS AGO THIS WEEK (27th JUNE - 3rd JULY 1922)
This week's many stories from a century ago include how austerity was leading to the sacking of married women schoolteachers in St Helens, the Bold Heath animal cruelty case, the St Helens MP suffers a personal tragedy, the new Windlehurst council estate that needed footpaths and fences, the bastardy order case in St Helens Police Court and the new wireless depot that was open for business in Westfield Street.
