Hi there we came from Martin street and Martin lane.My grandad and then my uncle owned the fruit shop in Martin street.We used to sell fruit and veg from a horse and cart does anyone remember the shop.

Was the family called White

I remember someone called White did not know him well quite a bit older than me but I remember he was always doing swaps comics.
I think he was something to do with the fruit shop could be wrong memory not what it used to be,but I can always remember more about times living down Watery Lane and Hammond street than I can remember what I did last week:D

i remember a mr.simpson who had a horse drawn cart and sold veg around upperthorpe,netherthorpe and areas close by,that was back in the 50's

Yes we were called White lots of brothers and sisters.

I remember Graham White.He use to go drinking in the Boomerang pub in the 1970's

Yes Graham was my cousin

Although I wasn't born or raised in Upperthorpe, I did have connections there. My grandparents owned the sweet shop in Addy St opposite the cinema in the early 50's. My great grandmother lived in a big old house in Shipton Street. It had several cellars which made an ideal shelter during the war. The family name is Needham. As a child visiting the area, by tram in those days, I remember walking up Albert Terrace Rd., past the Upperthorpe Tabernacle. I also recall a lady named Vera Boot, who was great at wallpapering. I think they lived in Addy Street too.

My cousin Jean Lived at the Spread Eagle on the opposite side of the road to the Scarborough Arms.
Docmel lived on the corner of Albion Street.
