Victoria Park Clinic

A Memory of Swinton.

I remember the austere yellow building as if it were yesterday. There I dreaded the school dentist who was, by modern standards, a butcher. Like Susan's account we also went to the swings after a visit to the dentist although at 10, I didnt care too much about the fun of it! We moved away from pendlebury in november 26 1960 on my 11 birthday and although many years ago now I still recall viisiting the park after school at Grosvenor rd during the summer months. I wonder if anyone else from my primary school still remembers the fun we had back then.

i also went to grosvenor rd school in the 1950,s- harry kearns was the head master who used a bike to get round the school, i also dreaded going to the school dentist-you sat in the chair and the awful mask was put on your face to put you asleep, but it was a beautiful building
