A Member of the Bolton Branch.
Ernest joined Lancashire Constabulary during the 1960’s and served at Tameside. He resigned from the police and became a licensee in Croston for a number of years. During a conversation with a local policeman he decided to rejoin the then GMP and served at Stretford, Eccles and Salford. Whilst at Salford he worked in the magistrates courts and because of his previous experience as a licensee he managed the bar at The Crescent Police Station.
