Infants School

A Memory of High Etherley.

Born and bred in Red Houses (then Red House Estate) at a time when everyone took time and effort to keep their home and gardens beautiful.  Everyone knew everybody and it was a community that looked after each other.  I remember going down to the infants' school (just off from cricket field) having a birthday and being given a cardboard cake by the teacher to open and take out sweets.  Before Dale View was built that field had a lovely bank and at Easter we used to roll our paste eggs down the bank.  Going over quarry heads and picking all the rosehips and taking them to Mrs. Hart in South Road to cash in.
