I went to Yew Lane late 50's - early 60's when 'pop' Clayton was headmaster.There was a creepy teacher called Mr Topham didn't like him at all could go on for ages , but don't want to bore folk.
The Merrie England used to open up as the Black Swan was closing - spent many happy hours in there .Anyone recall Terry Steeples when he ran the <mucky duck>.
Iremember Veronica on Yew Lane went To School (Yew Lane Secondary Modern School ) with her early 60's - lost touch when i moved away after getting married. I remember she 'knocked 'around with a girl named Christine Hudson
