1950s Waterfoot
A Memory of Waterfoot.
My grandmother used to take me to Waterfoot every day from Warth bridge to get a daily comic. I can still recall the titles, Lion, Beano, Topper, Knockout, Eagle etc. I used to make a beeline for the toy shop at the top of the arcade. There was a fruit shop and the owner had two large Airedale dogs, well they looked old to a boy of under 5. There was Holts the butchers, and Savilles where I used to be fascinated by the machines making bread which you could see at the rear of the firms. Once a week a mobile RSPCA van used to park near the church. All happy childhood memories..
