I am logging in on my hubbys log in. Anyone out there remember the flower estate in the good old days, I lived there from about 1954 ( I was born in 52) until I married in 73 I went to Shiregreen Nursery/ Junior/ Senior school till I left in 68, my brothers are peter,paul,david & philip Haddon, I went through the estate a couple of years ago, while I was on a visit to the UK and my god had the place changed, our house had been demolished & replaced with what I presumed to be flats (corner of Bracken & Wincobank Ave), anyone remember us or how good the estate was back then

I can't ever recall being a good estate; just a den of eniquity. But then again I'm only refering to the 1970's

I agree it became a bad estate, like a lot of them have, but back when I was a young lass/ teenager it was great we could leave our doors unlocked and not worry the neighbours where great people always looked out for one another not like now.

I was 20 in 1973 and was in that year. I lived at the bottom of Jenkin road near Newman Road and went to Shiregreen until I was 11 and took the 11+.

I remember Mathew Morton, Steven Strutt, Janet Osbourne, the Wilkinson brothers ( Brian, Howard etc) Howard Wilson, Jill Parkin, The gorgeous Price brothers from the paper shop. Kathleen Taft, Keith Mountain,Judith Claxton, John Bradshaw, the Sheldons etc etc.

I really loved that school and I was very happy growing up in the area.
