Cheshire memories
Windy Ridge Cafe Kelsall
In 1966 I was a bread roundsman delivering around the Chester area.My first drop was the Windy Ridge transport cafe in Kelsall.In those days there was no M56 and no bypass round the village so all the tankers from Ellesmere Port and other heavy transport heading to the M6 had to pass through Kelsall .This was good news for the owners of the cafe as many of the drivers stopped regulary for breakfast or lunch etc.I have very fond memories of the owners Pete & Mo Jones and staff who were all tremendous people and often wonder what has become of them.
The War
Arthur and Jack Fairweather. If I remember rightly we were billeted with Mr and Mrs Tomlingson at the farm, at the beginning of the village on the right hand side on entering. It was the most happy time of the war for us both, being separated from our sisters. But sadly we were moved on to a place called the BEACHES near Crewe. When the war was over an RAF officer took me to Kings Cross Station. I am now 74 years of age.
Yours truly
A FAIRWEATHER
Avenue Methodist Church
I left the Sunday School at this chapel in summer 1962 after several very happy years. Mrs Davies was the Superintendent and our expert pianist was Phyllis Jones (later Pritchard). My membership gave me a good grounding in the scriptures and lots of fun and friendship too. The Sunday School post-Christmas party and prizegiving events stand out as an especially happy memory. Many years after leaving Helsby I returned to Methodism and in due course became a local preacher. I'll always be grateful to my Sunday School teachers for what they did for me.
Church School
When I attended the Church School Miss Kinraid was Headmistress. Miss Price and Miss Hattan were also teachers. My father Frederick Charles Clarke attended before me. My brother Frederick Charles and my sister Olive May also attended this school. When I went to see the school in 1983 I was disappointed to find it had been demolished. My brother, sister and I later attended the Council School which I had a look round in 1983. I was a member of the Helsby Cubs and Scouts and have very happy memories of my childhood in Helsby.
Church School
I also went to the church school from 1954 to 1960. Miss Kinread was still Headmistress. The Chapel near the church was also used as a class room. Teachers I remember are Miss Heaton, Miss Williams and Mr Edge. It was a lovely time and I would love to hear from any class mates from that time.
Helsby Primary
I have a photo of my class of 1956 when I was about 7. I am keen to contact others in my class at that time. If you remember please contact me.
Helsby Secondary School
I would like to hear from anyone who attended Helsby Secondary School from 1962-64. My teachers were Mr Monkhouse senior & junior, Mrs Evans, Mr Roberts to name a few. If anyone remembers these teachers or me please contacts me.
