A Good Time To Be Living In Featherstone

A Memory of Featherstone.

I was 10 when Featherstone Rovers beat Wigan and Leigh in getting to the Wembley final.  We lived in the school house immediately opposite the entrance on Post Office Road.  What a wonderful period in history of the town.
I was born on Vicarage Lane and schooled at Regent Street and then George Street Junior School.  Eventually Normanton Grammer school.
I have wonderful memories of the town despite it being a pretty grim place.
I still visit the town whenever I return to Yorkshire, but never recognise  anyone despite the town being largely unchanged.
