Childhood Memory
The old photographs helped me remember some lovely memories of when I was a very young child, when it was a daily routine walking past the old brick works to go to Eye school, I believe that just past the brick works (obviously depending on which way you were walking) there was a bridge that went over the old railway.
My father Sid Earnshaw knew Bill Oliver who worked at the site and his brother Ray, sadly my father is no longer here, but the pictures were wonderful to see, and I cannot help but feel a little sad that Eye now looks nothing like it was when I was a child, but thats progress I suppose!! Although it's not all bad... as I still live in Eye.

RE: RE: Childhood Memory
I wonder if your father knew my grandad, Reg Briers, he lived in Eye Green all his life until his death a couple of years ago and he also worked at the brickyards, I think he was a supervisor and the guys called him Mr Reg. He lived in the old mill house which my parents now live in after extending and renovating it.
