Stocks Lane
A Memory of Rawmarsh.
My mother worked in Foxton's the bakers which was on Stocks Lane. It was cobbled with granite 'sets' and I think it had tram lines. As a boy, I was sometimes allowed to go out with the driver of the the bread van to make deliveries to pubs and Foxton's other shop in Parkgate. The area was re-developed during the 1960s - I was away at RAF Cosford when the plans were released. A multi-storey car park was built over Stocks Lane and one Chritmas morning, after church, we drove up to the top floor to get a good view of Rawmarsh. It had been snowing and the ramps were iced up, so coming down I was very glad to reach the bottom without hitting anything.
