Bank Hall

A Memory of Chapel-en-le-Frith.

My name is Paul Oates. Well, K.B. and G.P. made my life hell. Only one that was good was Mr Lucas, he was great. Me, Ray Lynch, Mick Duffy and Paul Wattkinson was always running off, but K.B. was like a blood hound and found you; then you had to pick what you wanted to be hit with; belt, slipper or hairbrush does anyone relate to that? He was tough and G.P. would pick you up with your ears, but me and lads had some fun down at youth club. If these men did the things they did now - it would be classed as abuse. Hope all the lads are still alive well.
