GUEST,Ray Help: Dirty Old Town? Meaning??? (MacColl) (406* d) RE: Help: Dirty Old Town? Meaning??? 23 Mar 13

Can't admit to having read this thread but the first line is "I met my love on the gasworks croft"; or at least that was what the ex-Stockport resident, Jimmy Millar, originally wrote.

I seem to remember the Dubliners singing "gasworks wall" on the TV a while back so that might have added to the confusion.
