Nigel Womersle

Sorry, all I can remember about it was that the man who served petrol there. always had a lit cigarette in his mouth whilst doing it. That was the reason I stopped going there for petrol.

Herbert Womersley and my Dad were brothers. Sadly, both long gone. Fred Copley was a neighbour.

I remember Kathleen. A really nice girl.

I entirely agree.

Yes, one of Phillip's sisters was named Kathleen. They lived then at Lower Butterthwaite Farm.

Walker's house on The Wheel is now the vicarage for Saint Mary's Church.

I have a faint recollection of the following on the window. 'Opened by Councillor Herbert Morrison'. The date was there too, but I can't remember it.

I remember the Mason family.

I remember some brick buildings on the right and I always thought they were something to do with the old vicarage. I remember Mr Burrows. When he retired he went to live just behind the White Bear in Stocks Hill. He once showed me a small bar of chocolate, given to him after the Ladysmith siege. I believe it was a token gift from Queen Victoria. I also went to school with his granddaughter Eileen.

I remember Jack Phillips and I worked with his sister Ivy. Priory Road was called burying Lane because it led to the old churchyard and the cemetery.

Roger Bamforth emigrated to Australia many years ago. I haven't seen Marilyn for years.

There was a cinema on Duke Street called 'The Norfolk'.

The Norma Pease I knew married a doctor and did emigrate.

I wonder if your grandparents 'swapped houses' with Arthur Gregory, who moved into The High Greave after they left. The Gregorys did live in that row in Church Street.

That's right MH.

Many years ago my Uncle was landlord of The Castle Inn at Bolsterstone. There was a chap who used to go in the pub who could almost make the bones talk.

Telephone Royal Mail Customer Services on 08457 740 740. Tell them about the trouble you had at Sheffield North Delivery Office. They will help. I worked in Royal Mail CS for 20 years.

I live two minutes walk from the proposed site for Aldi. I was born at 23 The Common - directly opposite the proposed Aldi. When I was a kid, the site was a small wood! I am wondering if the original part of Rollem will be demolished, as this was the Ecclesfield corn/flour mill, powered by water wheels in the stream, around two hundred years ago. I wondered if it could be grade 2 listed. Its cellars reached right to the Mill Road traffic lights. I saw them when the road was altered to accommodate the traffic lights. Of course the building occupied by Rollem Patent Products is only a part of the original mill. I suppose I shall have to wait and see what happens..

It has also got floodlights around its top part, but they are never switched on. I have seen it lit once.

There is a Thomas Jeffcock memorial fountain at the botom of Priory Road in Ecclesfield. There was also the Jeffock Nurses Home in the village, but this is now a private dwelling. Sorry, just realised I've said it all before.

The name was Woodcock.

Years ago I went to The Kinema in The Woods at Woodhall Spa. Only one screen then, and a very large one at that. I believe the projection was from behind the screen. The entire cinema was immaculate. The film I saw was Black Christmas.

That's right Tonio, she did.

Many years ago I knew a Miss Gwen Royle. She could have been related. Royle is not a common name.

That was North's Funfair. Only a small one as it was on the car park of the Ball Inn. Small or not, it was magic. Alterations at the Ball Inn prevented it from coming. Happy Memories. Also Lings Funfair in Mill Road. That fair was large.
