Warmsworth 1933-1950

My name is Gordon Giles, originally from Warmsworth, but now living in north Wales. When I was 6 months old my parents moved to 6 Gleeb Street, Warmsworth. This was June 1933. I lived there until 1950. We then moved to Balby. I have great memories of going to school in the village, I also remember the people who lived in Gleeb Street, there was Mr Longley, he was a carpenter and made coffins in his workshop at 3 Gleeb Street. At the bottom of the street was a greengrocer called Mr Guest, he had a horse and cart and went round selling fruit and veg. I was friends with their grandson Geoff Norman. We used to play cricket together. I used to visit most houses in Gleeb Street, Mr and Mrs Ashmore at no 2, they sold soft drinks, there was Mrs Day at no 4> It was a nice quiet street to live in. After my father died, he was Thomas Giles, we moved to Westmoorland Street, Balby. I now live in a lovely village near Caernarfon, north Wales, after leaving the RAF in 1955. I do hope someone may remember Gleeb Street, and the church belfry at the bottom of the street. I can still remember it starting to ring again on Sundays after being silent during the 1939-45 war.
