Memory Of Mickletown /Methley
A Memory of Mickletown.
Was always known as largest village in Yorkshire. Lived at 38( Big )Church lane.( Little)Chuch lane led off Big and went to main leeds Road facing Chuch and also Post Office. Used to trainspot on fence at side of railway line before bridge that trains went over. Saw queen Elizabeth train go over bridge late 50s. Used to sit on Bench on Church lane and had to jump over fence when Pit ponies were let out of pit to go to field at end of church Lane. It was sad really because they were blind with living and working down pit all their lives. Went to infants school that was on Pinfold Lane . But when new school opened on Little Church lane started to go there before taking my 11 plus in 1959
