Share your own memories of Walton-le-Dale and read what others have said

For many years now, we've been inviting visitors to our web site to add their own memories to share their experiences of life as it was when the photographs in our archive were taken. From brief one-liners explaining a little bit more about the image depicted, to great, in-depth accounts of a childhood when things were rather different than today (and everything inbetween!). We've had many contributors recognising themselves or loved ones in our photographs.

Why not add your memory today and become part of our Memories Community to help others in the future delve back into their past.

Mrs Feldwick was my aunt and from what know from my mother she was the housekeeper.i
Does anyone remember the big house on Church Brow called Cooper Hill? It was supposed to be haunted and it looked really scary, although a lady called Mrs Feldwick and her daughter Janet lived there quite happily.
I'm only a soft southener, but my several times great-grandparents were from 'up north' in cotton, my great-grandmother married a vicar in Dorchester, in the 1890s, had 8 kids. Can anybody tell me anything about the Rodgetts or Bashalls? Thanks
