Allen Priests Mill
In 1969 I worked at Allen Priests Mill as a twister, I also did winding.

Happy Times
I lived not very far from Beaumont park and as a child I used to go there along with friends, my sister or my brother, I remember the huge slide that was there and the long metal rocking horse that was on the field. The park was great to visit even at winter times, but the best was the summer when the ice cream shop was open and also the large paddling pool was available. Walking down the wide pathways you would come across the stone lions and the lovely monkey trees. The park will always have a special place in my childhood memories.

My dad Norman Kay, was Boilerman at the hospital during the year of the Queen's Coronation. I was seven years old and I remember the rain, we had our party in a house. Dad was born at Golcar .

On behalf of my father Charlie Comitti. He was courting and young girl called Doreen Morris. She had three sisters and one brother. They lived in Netherton Village. Tragically she was killed whilst walking out, a chap ran into her riding a push bike. He has very fond memories of her and her family.
