The Bull Ring c1955
Enlarge photo |  More about this photo

I was born in Manygates hospital and lived at 13 Clarkson Street, Lawefield Lane with just a wall seperating my house from my school so I would jump over the wall at the last minute. The house is no longer there. I would roller skate all the way to the park and later when I got a bike I went all over on that. My grandparents lived at Lupset and when my brother was born when I was 9 we moved to Lupset and I went to Snapethorpe school and left at 15 and went to work at Tankards carpets. I have some fantastic memories of when I was a child and could go on and on. I will save them for another time.

RE: RE: My Childhood

Can someone please contact me on barryeverett218@btinternet.com about Kirkthorpe as my attempts to post my memories of the village keep bombing out after about 2 mins. Especially Lynda Riddington (nee Barr) who may remember me
