I am attaching a photo of my old church, where I was a choirboy approx 1939 - 1945.
St Gabriel C of E, Beaufort Rd., Cockbrook, Ashton.
I believe that it was founded just after WWI when it was constucted in corrugated iron and was bricked round in 1952.
This photo was taken by me in 2005. Derek Crompton January 2007
