Childhood
Hi, Just wondered does anyone remember the Preece family that used to live in West View, opposite the war memorial on the main road.? My name was Susan Preece, I lived there with my mother and father, and went to the local school. I remember Padley's shop which was in the middle of the village. Lovely village. Sue.

My Father
I was born 1976 in Carlton. My father was a miner, Brian Mcbeth. My mother worked in a club or bar called Annabell's, Ann Mcbeth. My brother John Mcbeth helped on the farms. I think we lived on Kingston Road. I remember my father taking me to the greyhound, we had a whippit. My father was very found of racing and darts if I recall. Anyone who thinks they may know my parents, please contact me as I'm trying to find my father. Yours gratefully.

John was a true village charactor, and most people knew him. I remember collecting fresh milk from Medlams Farm, taking the two dogs from the Grey Horses for walks. I always enjoy going back the village, it is still the same ...see more

Mum's Shop
The shop behind where the car is parked used to belong to my mother, Freda Davies who still lives in Worksop. She took over from the Wards and the Hopkinsons took over from us. I lived at this shop for several years whilst I attended King Edward V1 Grammar School at Retford. I well remember the immediate surroundings of this photograph. The shop next door used to belong to the Padleys and the Fisher family ...see more
