Was this the family who had a daughter named Sandra , she got killed on Penistone road/Parkside road,would think around 1952.

Where can I find the photo's, My granmother lived in one of the bombed houses, and lived to tell the tale.I was born and raised on Elm Terrace in Owlerton Green.Pearsons shop was at the there,I remember my mom sending me there with the ration book,and when they were closed we used to go to the back door to get served, those were the days.

Oh dear how time flies, I remember a lot of those names,although some of them were my brothers age John Walsh who would have been 70 now,we lived in Owlerton Green opposite Swann Mortons.

I too started there in 1956, I am 67 so I must have been a year ahead of you.I knew a Brian Batty from Parkside Road school,and my friend Pat Batty who went to Wisewood school, any relation ?

Yes I remember those teachers,we were the first students in when it opened, many years ago.My name was Barbara Walsh and I moved there from Parkside Road.It would be lovely to speak to someone from my class, if anyone remembers me.

Oh I am sure someone would remember you however I was there about 1957 just a little before you time I knew a family called Wheelhouse who lived just below the Parson Cross Hotel, but that was many years ago.

I have just had a wonderful giggle thinking about the mashing as we called it, two sugar to one tea in a little newspaper parcel twisted at the top for my dads pack up. Thanks for the memory

Yes..I remember Carol Bishop she was a childhood friend ,so sorry to hear of her passing.Neil was a toddler then. Oh how time flies, this site is bringing so many good memories back.

would love to trace anyone who lived in Owlerton Green, the houses where in terraces, Elm..Wilmot etc opposite from Swann Mortons..I remember some large boards on the junction of Owlerton Green and Bradfield Road.We used to go under the said boards where we had our den.We made some sort of clay oblong contraption in which we burned paper (not very safety conscious when I come to think of it) but who was at 10 years old.How on earth did I remember those?.I remember too going for walks down the Meadows which were at the back of the Speedway track, there was a white bridge over an old rail track by the side of an overgrown grave yard if my memory serves me well. Anyone out there remember these things ?.

Yes, I lived in Owlerton Green..many of my school friends from Parkside Road school lived near Bassetts.That was around 1953

We were the first in Chaucer when it was built..moved up from Parkside Road.

Gosh this takes me back to the day,I left in 1959 but I do remember those teachers Mr Newman deputy head
