West Yorkshire memories

Big Snow

I was 12 years old that year, and we could not get to school for the big drifts.

Moved in to Denholme

I was 4,nearly 5, when I moved into Denholme from Bramley Leeds, and started school at the D.P.S, Mr H Heinghton was headmaster then. A lot has gone out of Denholme since I have come back, the mills and lovely small shops.

Eastwood School

I went to this school at the age I believe around 7-8yrs old. I would like to know if anyone out there went to the same school. My name was  Sylvia Rooke. In fact I think the headmaster's last name was Rooke. I lived in Keighley till 1955 then moved to canada, my email address is    sylviarosiek@yahoo.com  if you have information at all please feel free to email me  as Eastwood School had a lot of memorys for me, so thankyou and I hope to hear from someone.

My Life Living in Keighley

I was living in Keighley. I was attending Eastwood School at the age of 7 years, I don't know what age I started this school, but I have a lot of memmories and would like to hear from somone that could have gone to this school also. My name at the time was Sylvia Rooke, I think I lved on Cravenrow but am not too sure about the name. If anyone out there can help with this school at all that would be wonderful. If you could contact me my email is: rosieksylvia@yahoo.ca. Thankyou, I hope to hear from somone soon.

Waterloo House From Slack Top c1965

This was the first home I ever knew and remains, to this day, the one I hold as the true definition of 'home'. Waterloo House was where I was brought as a newborn in June 1974, and where I lived so happily until 1980 when we were, sadly, forced to sell up and leave. I have countless memories, from toboganning down the fields in the deepest snow ever (which sometimes blocked the doors and entirely covered the downstairs windows - my dad having to climb out of the upstaris to dig us free) to standing in the sunshine waiting for my daddy to return from work over the crest of the hill along the road.
I believe the house to have been haunted, quite extensively. Certainly not one of my family can report that nothing unusual happened to them while they lived there. But then thats personal opinion. What do you believe?
