When I was in Sheffield youth theatre, thirty years ago, nearly, we used to meet in an old school that was replaced by a more modern one, on the Langsett estate.

 

The old school, a school-board school, was "ex walkley junior school"

 

I seem to remember it was somewhere about the junction at the bottom of Carr road with ?walkley road?

meg jepson used to run it,it was called dramaspace,upstairs in the old walkley school on burnaby street, i worked there as a trainee caretaker in 1980

My ex, known then, as Lyn Butterworth and her sister Elaine lived on Burgoyne Road between the school and the pub and were both pupils. If anyone knows them Ill pass on your regards

If my memory serves me right, was their mother the daughter of Mr & Mrs Stringfellow who ran the corner shop on Harworth Street?

My Mum Vicky Thompson (before she was married) went to St Mary's school and so did her brother Russell and sister Joy. They lived at 90 Fir Street, Walkley. I went there for a while and then moved to Bole Hill first School. My aunty Gail Thompson also went there, we are both thirty now though, so you do the maths. Happy days.

Anybody remember a Marriott family living in Burgoyne Street 50's/60's

 

I lived on Burgoyne Road (29) from 1954, next yard down below Windleys the undertakers and my grandparents lived a few doors below us, they were called Marriott.
