Hi Janie- M

I have just joined the firm and read your query about the 1955/56 United Winner from Wincobank County School I think that I can ad little bit more info on the subject

Back row Third one along is Jimmy Richardson He lived next to the chapel on Barrow Rd Dick & Cora were his parents and they ran the dancing in the 1950s in the old school across from the church { Jimmys grandad was old man Casson the Greengrocer on Barrow Rd } Sixth one along is Kenny Wright also from Barrow Rd up past the post office

Sitting Joe Andrews our 4th year teacher { and once trained The Sheffield Boys Football Team } Behind the shield is Albert Nelson Standon/Vauxall area I believe Next to him sits Trevor Flavel Standon/vauxall area and the last is Mr Woods Head Teacher Kneeling on the left is Bob Dickinson from the first courtyard down from Harrisons on Barrow Rd All the persons mentioned, and myself, were in the same class except Trevor who was one class lower.
