      I lived here in 2009 and came back in 2019 and its not much different . Thornton Lodge is quiet compared with when a bloke was shot and the killer stopped in my garden to sort himself out and I suspect hide his gun in the long grass by tracks. Nobody been stabbed, shot or attacked here in 3 years .

    Brackenhall estate was part of my school route when I was really young. This was around the late 90s. I remember the area quite well, houses were boarded up, not to mention you’d find Asda trollies scattered on the roads, pavements and gardens. Place was so desolate, I don’t even remember seeing a single person in the area.

    They knocked the estate down and rebuilt it so the cops could catch the poor trying to earn some money the only way available for too many youths. Education and support to get into gainful employment would have been a better use of the funds

      The police raided a particular pub they had agreed to give concession to. it triggered a few brutal arrests, the community reacted, the police reacted, it spiralled out of control..

      @Gorgon Don but if you do your research you'll see that, then member of a nationalist group - Liam "the Ham" Canning was actually responsible for inciting hatred amongst the community. This was the catalyst for the riots. I'll see if I can find the newspaper cut outs for this with all the above stated facts
