' This was the Longford Institute built by John Rylands, Britains richest mill owner, as a Temperance and Sports Club to entice the local men away from those establishments that served the 'demon drink' or alcohol. I last temember it as the Kenwood Sports and Tennis Club and it has since been demolished and new housing built on the site. The original caretakers house can still be seen at the rear of 78 Kenwood Rd and the gateway still has the original cast iron pillars. '
