Bramley Parade In 1955

A Memory of Oakwood.

I was brought up near Boxer's Lake in the 1940s and 50s in Silverdale, one of the culdesacs off the southern arm of Lonsdale Drive. My first "job" was as a paper boy for Murrays the Newsagents on Bramley Parade, the nearest shop in this photo. I used to cycle up Merryhills Drive and along Bramley Road to work. Later, in my school holidays, they took me on as a junior assistant in the shop itself. At this time Murrays was the last shop at the western end of the parade with only waste ground between them and Prince George Avenue.
