 Lower Withington, the Church, the School House and School c1955 (ref: L586009) |
Year: 1962
My Primary School
What a lovely old photo! I was lucky enough to spend my primary school years, 1962 to 1968, at Lower Withington primary school as did my sister Cathy and my mum and uncle before us. Our headmistress lived in the house next door to the school and believe it or not she actually taught my mum and uncle also! We all have many good memories of growing up in Lower Withington and all these years on it still feels like home when we go back even though we moved away in 1969. The village has changed a bit over the years, what place hasn't; the school is now a large house and the grass in the front of the photo is now the Village Hall car park. In our day there was a hall but it was a low wooden building and we knew it as the 'Parish Room'; the church is still the same though, a green corrugated tin building but all the more special for not being replaced or closed.

My Father - Aubrey (aub) Davenport A memory of Siddington, Cheshire From 1960 approx onwards- my father was the best blacksmith around. He was a master blacksmith at Smithy-House, Siddington. He not only shod horses but was the master of welding farming implements. Never a bad word was ever said about him. He retired to Chelford where he died in 2001. Many of the farmers remembered him including -The Wains, Worth's, Venables, Pilkingtons and many many others including Mr R Rush layreader at the church who gave a wonderful reading at my father's funeral. I would appreciate all fond memories to my email at javealady@msn.com. Posted: 04/09/2008 21:52 by Diane Payne |

Blackden Hall A memory of Goostrey, Cheshire My great great grandfather, Simon Myall, had a farm called Blackden Hall according to the 1851 census. The house is still there but no longer a farm. Audrey Frost Posted: 24/03/2008 10:15 by First Name Last Name |

 Nether Alderley, Potts' Shop c1955 (ref: N148006) |
Village Shop, Nether Alderley A memory of Nether Alderley, Cheshire It is often stated that the village shop was also the Post Office, but this is not true. There was a letter box (bar) in the wall, but the nearest Post Office was at Monk's Heath. The village shop was very small but sold a variety of products from chicken feed to postcards.
