Bridgehouses,Corporation st.Westbar,Shalesmoor were all in the same area Kelham was hardly ever spoke of until the Museum moved into the old tram generator building.

Lots of money made building yuppie rabbit hutches for bright young things and pretentious pubs with **** poor beer and changing the area name because Kelham sound better than Shalesmoor,Really?

The garage was Richardsons I believe and Charlie May down Backfields used to sell them,they had quite a bit of trouble clearing the casting sand out of the differential space in the back axles. -

Jon ffrench thanks for the information.I know Kunselsau very well Hillsboro sent me a book on German Pork Butchers in Britain and one of them was actually an ancestor of a friend who lives in Untermasholderbach and he called his cousin who was directly related to him and we had a get together and i passed the book to him he was overjoyed with it all. I also knew an Armitage family from Wadsley village which was near to Wisewood where Fanny came from I wonder if this is the same family they had a wool shop in the village around 1960.
