A Beautiful Childhood

A Memory of Quarry Bank.

My name was Ann Beese and I was born at 60. Bath Road, Quarry Bank.
We moved to Montgomery crescent when I was young and then to 32, Bobs Coppice Walk.
Myself and my two sisters ( Christine and Rosemary ) spent many happy days playing with our friends down the wood opposite our house.
We spent hours playing in the park.
There was a paddling pool in the park and a see saw, giant slide.
There used to be a big fair on the park for the carnival day.
My sister Gladys was Quarry Bank gala queen and I went in the fancy dress compitition .
I love living in Quarry Bank but it has changed so much, there were lots of shops on the high street.
Shoe shops, clothe shops and we had a cinema, which was owned by Mr Roberts.
Plenty of pubs.
But when I walked with my gran everyone new each other by name.
I love Quarry Bank.
