I REMEMBER 'TINY' WAKEFIELD IN THE 1950s WHO LIVED & RAN A SCRAP METAL & RAG & BONE BUSINESS A THE REAR OF NANNY GOAT COMMON
I lived in Homestead Road 1951 - 1963. The pub was 'The Merry Fiddlers'.
I will always remember it as in photo, happy days
My friend used to live in one of the small cottages on Nannygoats Common. I think there was a scrap metal merchant who also lived in same row, I think his name was Tiny Wakefield. Today flats and more flats dominate this area, the old junior school was pulled down to make way for 'progress'. I have happy memories of playing on the common, nowadays when passing through the area I look straight ahead, neither looking left nor right, I like to keep my happy memories intact!
