School And Friends

My name then was Barrett. I remember living on Walton Street, Holmebridge. My best friend then was Dorothy Hobson, we lived at no 6 and she lived at no 18 I think. I went to the council school where the headmaster was Mr Laycock. My best teacher was Mrs Baker. And I remember going to the sweet shop next to the park, I think it was called Ogdens.

RE: RE: School And Friends

You mentioned the word Ogdens sweet shop, my auntie was called Mrs Lillian Ogden who owned the milk bar & bread shop in 1952-1960. She shared the milk bar with Laurence Driver who owned the medicream ice-cream factory on the other side of the beck, aka stream. Happy memories of the days gone by and visiting Silsden first week in October 2011 to reminisce.
