Standground Road was on lower Manor, all of the manor estate was demolished about 30 years ago, something to do with the eroding mortar between the bricks no being safe.

Talking about Stanground Road brought back some memories of a couple of people that I once knew. Cath Frogget and John Vaughn this was in the early sixties.alan p.

Thanks Yorkshire75 I was born there but we moved to Stonecliffe Road on Manor Park,

we lived at 122 but our Grandma lived at the other end near Harborough Avenue, then she moved to Queen Marys Road (the one at the side of St Theresa Catholic Church).

When I looked on Google I noticed that the places my Grandma had lived were all knocked down even The Circle, they had a house there as well.

My sister married Albert Hawksworth who lived on Srandground Road, they lived there until the whole placed was demolished, they were rehoused to Intake around 1984 or 85.

Did you have a mate called Kenny, used to be a plumbers apprentice round about 1964?
