Early Childhood
A Memory of Shaw Mills.
My father was the manager at the bottom tannery in Shaw Mills and we lived in Sunny Lea from 1955 - 1960. Although I was only 6 when we left, I have numerous vivid memories of that idyllic time and feel privileged to have lived there.
My sister and I used to walk up to Hardcastle's farm to get eggs and our mother wasn't very pleased when we brought a kitten home instead!
On Saturdays we were allowed to walk down to Miss Stead's shop to spend our pocket money.
We went to Sunday school at the methodist chapel and were close friends of the Petches who lived next door on Millbank Terrace.
What a wonderful start to life!
