My Great Childhood Days in Royston

I lived at number 2 Church Street, Royston, in a rented house owned by the Co-op. I went to Midland Road Primary and Junior School. As a small child I was taught to play the violin by Tom Wright. My father was the manager of trhe Co-op hardware store on Midland Road. My entire family on my mother's side lived in Royston. Their surname was Ward. My best friend was David Musgrave whose parents ran the butchers shop in Church Street. After 1953 my family moved to Blackpool.
