The blacksmiths was between the Post Office and the Vets (originally the New Inn run by the Helliwells) on Beighton Road. Many a time have I looked over the gate and watched the blacksmith shoeing the horses. ---------- Post added 23-01-2015 at 11:24 ---------- I remember Billy Gregg but I wish I could forget him!!!!

The gospel hall was at one time used as part of the village school. The year was around 1955, I went there and had the shortest journey home. It was just across the road. ---------- Post added 23-01-2015 at 11:13 ---------- There was a massive red bridge on the hillside and around 1960 it was still there along with a factory nearby. ---------- Post added 23-01-2015 at 11:15 ---------- Before Miss Cantor the headmaster was Mr. Bell. I think he was the first headmaster at Rainbow Forge School.
