Crewe in generalNewest Review: ... steel. This led to huge amounts of steel being produced, replacing iron in building and construction industries. In 1938, Rolls Royce Limited built it’s factory in Crewe where it built it’s famous cars which were acknowledged as being the finest motor cars in the world. As the areas largest employer, it’s said that everybody in Crewe has a father, uncle or lover who works at Rolls Royce, but as they will be moving south in 2003, there’s some uncertainly as to how this will effect the town. However, Bentley cars will still be built here, so hopefully the effect won’t be too great. Rolls Royce aside, ... more |

Lots of trains. No boats and planes, but there are plenty of cars. Rolls Royce cars. Most of you will probably associate Crewe with either the railway, the football club (Crewe Alexander) or Rolls Royce. Understandable I suppose, as there isn’t much else here really.

Crewe is a mixture of boredom and excitement. The 'new' Alexandra stadium is a great source of excitement, (no offence to Crewe fans here) but some of the comical errors that are witness there are hilarious, e.g. the goalie Bankole let the ball go right through his legs, what a laugh, but then again some of the football witnessed there was amazing and Dario Gradi has produced a top quality football team (well done). The boredom comes when you move away from the football stadium and the shops because there is nothing, just houses, upon houses, upon houses, oh and the odd pub and newsagents. So i am still undecided about whether the pros out weight the ...
