Hollinwood School, Incline Road
A Memory of Oldham.
Hollinwood Sec Modern School, incline Road was a fabulous school in many ways: I started there circa 1955 from Freehold Juniors. The headmaster was Archer Tate a well known baritone singer in the N.W. He was a friendly, very pleasant man. The school had great success on the sports field … I played netball and Bill Dearden (later a pro footballer) was football captain. I was head girl in my last year there. Many dear friends
remain in my memory like Mary Ashforth, Joyce Widdall, EiLeen Kibble, Barbara Fielding all of whom I’ve lost touch with over the years sadly. Such happy times and wonderful teachers like Eileen Atherton who made history interesting, the great music teacher and choir master, James Wild and many more. At the great age of 80 I still have these wonderful memories. Mavis Williams (Mavis Andrew). Email: mhurworth1@gmail.com
