What a small world we live in, the house you know as the Bradleys house was my grandparents house, my nannan was Freda, she was the sister of Stan, she married Albert Hill and they had my dad John Hill who was born in 1960 so would have been only very young at the time you were there, I shall ask my dad to look at this thread

Victormh I live on Park Drive now, no there is still no access through to West Park Drive. My dad John Hill was good friends with Carlos Tarver for many years before he moved over to South Africa I think it was. My grandparents lived in the house next door to Carlos, as they grew older my dad and his brother both built their own houses on land either side of my grandparents and our bungalow was next door to Carlos, I lived there till my teens and bought my own house on Park Drive ten years ago, many of the same people still live there. I wonder if you know Daphne who lived opposite in the semi detached houses, she still lives there now. And there was Ciril and Mary further up the road, Bill and June and Mrs Exton in the very end semi

I wonder if you know any of my family, my dad is 60 and lived in Swallownest all his life, John Hill, his brother is David. My grandparents were Freda and Albert Hill who lived just off Chesterfield Road on Park Drive where there was a garden centre and I believe the Lighthowlers who you mentioned also lived on there. Albert worked at Orgreave I know. Other members of my family who were also Hill's are Henry, Nel and Harry. Henry emigrated to Australia many years ago, Harry lived up the road just off Lodge Lane but has sadly now passed away. Nel moved to Leicester a long time ago.
