Sorry Brooksy I lived on the Manor,but we all used to go down "The Cliff" when we were younger(too many years ago)we used to love going to Banners to shop and have a toasted teacake while was there.

I lived at Norfolk Bridge which was on the fringe of Attercliffe but I went to Ellesmere Road School. I remember Banners, Littlewoods, Cox's record shop, the skating rink and the Regal Pictures.

Sorry mate, i'm from Firth Park. Remember my mom used to take me to Attercliffe to shop at Banners. Do you remember the girls at the tills used to put the money in little containers and put it in a suction pipe? The container would go with a wooosh up the pipe and travel along pipes in the ceiling to the accounts office(presumably) and then come back to the cashier with the correct money. My Aunty Elsie and Uncle Harry used to live at Attercliffe, cant remember their address at the mo, but they used to send us to a little chippy just round the corner sometimes when we went visiting.

I was born in Cottingham Street. Number 54, I think. The house got blasted by a land mine or bomb during the blitz. We escaped to the cellar of a neighbour's house - they were called Gleadall, I think.

I was born on Stamford Street, which was off Newall Road. On a visit from Canada in 1978, I took my son down to where our house had been, and it was a parking lot. The church, the "rec", the houses all gone!
