Knowsley Park
Approximately 1955 to 1959. I remember going to Knowsley Park for the Sunday School 'treat'. We would walk round the town in procession in our best clothes behind our banners. The procession would end in Knowsley Park and we would have tea in a marquee - sandwiches, cakes, jelly and cups of tea in white cups and saucers. After tea we would have races - for example the egg and spoon race. Does anyone else remember this? My maiden name was Lamb.

I too have memories of Sunday School treats but a few years later than you. Interested in your memories of Beaconsfield Street. What house did you live in ? Irene T.

RE: RE: Knowsley Park
I lived at 4 Albert Street which was at the bottom of Beaconsfield St. My Grandma lived in Beaconsfield St. I don't know the number but it was about 2 houses above the C of E school which was about half way up on the right hand side as you faced upwards. I went to that school. My first teacher was Miss Batton and the next class up was taught by Miss Chataway.
at the top of beaconsfield st there was a corner shop - on the left hand side. at the bottom of beaconsfield st (on albert st) there was the Salvation Army place.
