Growing Up In Grasswell
A Memory of Grasswell.
I lived in 38, Gertrude St, when I was 4yrs old, we lived with our grandparents, Mr and Mrs Goyne after the war. I started at New Bottle School at 5 and I remember moving to 2 New Bottle Row (a colliery house) opposite Clifftens butchers, sharps post office shop and cummins grocery shop. I used to take the daily note to the shop for the daily groceries, not like we do these days.... We played on those swings which are still there in Grasswell. Then we would disappear up the hill at the top of our street for for hours on end playing games. I loved living in the colliery houses, no one had anything but we were happy . Jean Tempest (Goyne)
