Well i was born in 63 and lived on Crag View Crescent all my life. Barney was my neighbour at one time, and then moved down to Langsett Road South, again next to Barney. I am still looking for someone called Charmayne Ekins from school days if anyone knows her whereabouts.

My Father grew up in Outibridge pre 1920. I believe his uncle was very active at the Club down in the bottom of the village (don't remember it's name)

My wife, Debbie lived all her life in Oughtibridge before she married me - that was in 1980 when we went to live in Woodseats

 

She used to live on Naylor Grove - her mum and dad were George and Mavis Stride, and her two brothers Nigel and Paul

 

She went to the Primary School and then to Bradfield - she left there in 1975 to work at Cole Bros.

 

Nigel left Oughtibridge early 70's to go to Uni in London - never came back and he still lives there, but retired now

 

Paul left early 80's - now lives Firth Park

 

George & Mavis both died, sadly, within ten days of each other in 1989

 

Mavis's family were long time Oughtibridge residents - before moving up to Naylor Grove they used to have a place at the back of the butchers down in the village.

 

Debbie has some very fond memories of her childhood in the village and is looking forward to bring our granddaughter up to the park sometime (we now live in Rutland)

 

I am writing this for the missus 'cus she and computers dont get on - every time she sits at one it seems to always go wrong!

I'm Jason and Ashley's sister - born in Oughtibridge in 1985 when we lived in The White Hart - I LOVED that pub (was only there until I was 7 or 8 I think) then moved to Loxely then back to Oughtibridge again when I was 11.

 

Jason now owns my mum and dads old house in Oughtibridge and my parents and Ashley now live in Wharnclife Side. I now live in Westfield but do miss Oughtibridge from time to time!
