Nostalgic memories of Holmbridge's local history

Share your own memories of Holmbridge and read what others have said

For many years now, we've been inviting visitors to our web site to add their own memories to share their experiences of life as it was when the photographs in our archive were taken. From brief one-liners explaining a little bit more about the image depicted, to great, in-depth accounts of a childhood when things were rather different than today (and everything inbetween!). We've had many contributors recognising themselves or loved ones in our photographs.

Why not add your memory today and become part of our Memories Community to help others in the future delve back into their past.

The row of houses on the hillside is Holmclose, a row of council houses built after the Second World War, where I lived from 1950 to 1970. The large building in the foreground is Hinchliffe Mill JMI School where I attended until 1956 when I then went to Holme Valley Grammar School.
