Irby, The Village c1955
I was born in Irby 1940, and well remember the village, what a lot of changes have taken place. I too remember the cottage which preceded the library, and went to school with the young girl (very pretty) who lived there. I worked at Dawpool Farm, and would be interested to find any photos of the farm, or of anyone who had worked there, as I am trying to put my memories down in writing. Who remembers sledging down Suttons Hill, by the church?
The shops I remember were: the first one after the cottage was The Oak Tub, a grocer, the next was Mrs Duttons a hardware shop, next I think a ladies hairdresser, next was Brecons, the chemist then the Irby Club, and so on. John Hough's farm was opposite and Irby library was where the chippie is now. If anyone can remember Dawpool Farm etc, please e-mail me, I would love to hear your recollections. john193@supanet.com
