The original Shameless estate, west gorton, manchester 10/10/12

[Tom sherman]

I'm not to sure when the estate was build and I can't find anything online about it.

All that i know about it is that T.V program Shameless was filmed there between 2003 and 2007.
I heard a story that they moved location because filming equipment was being stolen by the locals,
most of the estate is being knocked down over the next 10 years to make new council homes.
I have took these pics on a iPhone and they look fine to me lets see what you guys think .

Here are a few articles about the estate:

[Tom sherman]

This is my first report on the site, so hopefully it works out good for you all to view.

[mr beardy]

Pictures aren't coming up

[Tom sherman]

sorry i dont know where ive gone wrong, i dont know why my pics are not showing.

[Only2Eyes]

Bloody hell Tom, Lid. You should use the preview button before posting.

This site works the same as the others you have posted on...

You need to get the image url (In flickr - right click on the image, select the size, right click, copy image url) and wrap it in PASTE URL HERE . Those instructions will probably only work in Chrome.

Voila...

Thanks for all your help O2E. Most people think you're a bulb but I think you're super boss.

No worries, Tom. I am boss.

[birdinanaviary]

It is :) definitely is, we were just offering some constructive comments! Pick your best pictures if you have loads
People can then go to your Flickr etc to see the rest ;)

[Only2Eyes]

Aye, people have just given you some sound advice, don't be a balloon.

Typically a report will have between 10 and 20 pictures. Any more than that, unless it is a completely boss site with lots of different elements, then people will get bored.

Take the comments on board and get some more stuff up.

Looks like a multitude of inner city estates, pits of crime ridden jobless despair lol

[Tom sherman]
