New Church Farm. – Good and not so good memories of the first high density estate in Skelmersdale. Good in the sense it provided a quick (albeit) an ill-thought out design and solution to the slum housing problem of inner-city Liverpool. By the late 1970s there were many leaving Skelmersdale due to high unemployment and the sky high cost involved in heating properties on estates like NCF.
