Miss Briggs And Mr. Thorpe
A Memory of Bredbury.
I attended St. Mark's from 1953-57. We lived on George Lane. As well as Fanny Briggs and Mr. Thorpe, I remember a Mrs. Needham and particularly Laurie Sargeant, who took the class below Miss Briggs. I remember a few names from my time there - Kay Palfreman and her brother - they lived on Brookfield Avenue and Marie Wolfendon who lived down on the Mill Lane estate, Roy Higginbottom who had almost white hair, a boy named Eric who always had sweaty hands, and a tall lad, Chris something. The boys loos, outside and across the playground were utterly disgusting! The boys and girls playgrounds were separated by a wall of wooden sleepers.
On leaving St. Mark's, I went to Hyde Grammar and finally left home in 1967 when I joined the RAF.
