Hi Cazza, just read your post about living on Archdale Road. I also lived there from 1953 to 1973 and went to Standhouse and Hurlfield Girls. I lived at number 121, my maiden was STOKES I have a sister called Pauline and a brother called John, i was wondering whether we know one another.

Anybody out there know of ANNE THOMSON, KATHLEEN LAMBERT, MOIRA and MAVIS DUDLEY who lived on Archdale Road in the 50s and 60s.

Hiya. I'm married to Kathleen Lambert's brother, John. We live in France now, but John's in the UK just now and had a wander down Archdale even though it's flat. He said that the tree he gave to the next door neighbour, Mr Coooper, was still there.

Not sure but the back of Standground School, which I presume was on Standground Road, backed on to Archdale Road if my memory is correct.
