I grew up in Worsley, or Roe Green to be exact, 1965 to 1980 and so the area was formational in my life. I went school at St Marks, I was a Cub and Scout at 2nd Worsley Scouts based at the Oil Store, played in Worsley woods and eventually got very drunk, many times, in The Bridgewater and Cock public Houses. I drive past on the M62, which I saw being built (and rode my bicycle on before being opened) but haven't been back for a long time. So today I got the chance and it hasn't changed very much really. The Oil Store is now a multiple occupancy building but looking resplendent in the sunshine, the Packet House, Nail makers house and alphabet bridge still exactly like it was. The canal, although not as orange as it once was, still bears the unique colour it had when we used to fall in from the boats we paddled about from Scouts. Round and on the Boothstown leg you come to the crane which is used to lift the canal block. Then to the left is a small track which used to have Dodds sweet shop at the bottom and 'The Old Nick' at the top ( which was Worsley's Police Station. Back, past the Oil Store and to the bridge where, in the late 1960's I watched as HM Queen Elizabeth II stood and waved to me, dressed as I was, in my Cub uniform..... She did, I'm sure it was me she waved at. It is still there, although not newly painted anymore. Then onto Worsley Green and the Works Yard forge monument. I could be wrong but I'm sure I remember the fountain worked when I was a child. All in all a pleasant hours walk, which much reminiscing.

While attending a training course near by decided to have walk one sunny afternoon.Great little gem, walking down the canal etc..

Worsley Delph is a picturesque spot, rich in history and a lovely part of the Bridgewater Canal. The area around the Delph is peaceful, with well-maintained pathways and beautiful green spaces. It’s a great location for a relaxing walk, and the canal adds to the tranquil atmosphere. The Delph itself is an old part of Worsley’s industrial history, once the site of an old coal mine and basin. You’ll see the original stone structures, which give a sense of the area’s past. There are plenty of benches and spots to sit, making it an ideal place for a quiet break. It’s also a nice area to explore if you're into walking, cycling, or photography. The combination of the natural surroundings and the historical features makes Worsley Delph a great hidden gem to visit.
