Lived here as a kid 1972/81 great place to grow up surrounded by fields no crime really good people , then heroin arrived mid eighties from Liverpool then it went down hill fast … shame as my childhood memories were the best nesting camping motorbikes on the common 😢

Never has been nice. Like every council estate, it has major issues with drugs. I have seen worse in Liverpool, Salford and Manchester but avoid that side of Warrington if you can. Lot of good areas in the town, Penketh, Gt Sankey, Grappenhall. Its not all run down.

When I worked for Royal Mail I parked my van on that estate then went out delivering the mail, then I couldn’t find where I’d parked my van! nightmare but the locals where really friendly laughing with me but helping me in my search 😂

Southworth, and molynuex was also a rough place to live in the 90s but was great if you lived there as I did and the bells that was on lonfshaw St was our local. Absolutely miss that place everyone knew each other and had that community spirit but if you was a stranger you had be cautious haha. Also cabul close orford had a bad rep too.

I've lived in the area for over 25 years and yes what you have shown is grim but not all the houses/flats are rough, theres some really nice houses further round and lovely parkland. The pub although looks like it belongs on shameless is actually ok inside- you should of called in you might of been surprised. The rubbish is due to the councils idea of caged bins and fly tipping- that's disgraceful!!!! All council estates attract unemployed(especially the flats) but most are working and struggling with the costs today. Yes its rough but I can honestly say theres some good hard working people from the estate and I feel safe walking the streets at night. Helen 54 year old, doesnt do crime, drugs or carry a gun!!!! 😂

I’ve seen a lot worse. Billy has no vision of content. He thinks people all think like him, ie, the hardest Man, the roughest area , Billy it’s easy to locate people who have achieved and made a contribution to the community. Billys next video will be drunks and vagrants and Junkies lying behind the shop .then telling us all how bad the World is treating them . People are sick to death seeing this stuff. Get some decent content Billy or fuc k off

That doesn't look bad cosmeticly really Those flats could do with a render coat for sure. I don't always like the people communal areas and there properties that's what brings em down. It might be a bit cliquey there for sure.

Nahh mate it isnt that bad now. i often ride through there on my ebike aha. All ive had is compliments off the chavs that hang around the shops next too the pub...or at the pub 😂.. thats been day and night.. Saying that...back in the early 2000s that grey block of flats was indeed full of drug dealers and users, mainly cannabis and beak. The police here are rather chill on cannabis though (as long as you're a user and not a farmer and / or plug) 😂 . As of 2018 its been legal on prescription so i think they just let it be now for the most part. Just thought i'll share that🤙. Im new to your channel and i like seeing my town and liverpool.., i can now say.. Ooo ive been there 😂😂 so im a new sub 👍🫡

@@lb9647 There’s a lyric in the song that goes ‘hopes may rise on the Grasmere’ and even though that’s vague it’s totally possible as it’s the Smiths so it’s anyone’s guess.

If you think that's rough, try Bewsey just over the a49....did a job there 2yrs ago an it was absolutely mad, could have made a Fly on the wall documentary. 1 house had it's door kicked in and they were climbing in and out of the front window for at least a month while I was there.......🤣🤣🤣

Hi Billy, Thanks for your vid, it does look rather tired, miserable and messy. However in fairness I've never actually been there so I can't speak any facts about the place. It does look gloomy though Billy. To be honest the same could be said about most Council estates up and down the country!. Watching this video doesn't exactly make me want to go there anytime soon. Anyway thanks again Billy. John. 🤔👍

Grassmere is nowhere near the roughest place in Warrington. There are places in wazza you can’t go unless you’re from there or know everyone. There’s also dencham ave in Longford that’s pretty grim 😂
