Earlestown 1949 56

A Memory of Newton-le-Willows.

We moved from Manchester to Earlestown in 1949. My father had taken the position of Transport Manager at the CWS (Co-op). We moved into the house at 1 School Street that was in front of the bakery, kitchens, stables and transport yard - both horse and motor; a wonderful "adventure playground". The joy of "driving" a horse drawn milk cart at the age of 6 was an experience to remember. I attended Earlestown District school and then Newton-le-Willows Grammar school, and even recall working on the market for additional pocket money. We moved South in 1956.
