Children's homes or orphanages in Sheffield

[brian1941 11]

Will never know the storys of why some land up in Fullwood,but the Linsey's do stick in mind because a trio of such nice polite lads even at that early age remember thinking these are not from around here,and to land up with Millner in 3 untill 14 what a horror story:gag:

Hi Mazybaby, i am just curious what number house was

you in, i know times changed from when i was in their 1940/54.

The Orphanage closed in 1960 and the Children move across the

city Called Scattered Homes.

Then the place was opened as Girls approved School renamed

the ( Moorside )

---------

Finally in the early 1980s the Vietnamese Boat People were

housed there, then when that closed it was converted into

luxury Dwellings as it is today.

Send me a reply back and i'll send you a picture of the lay out.

Brian.

Does anybody have any information about orphanages within the Sheffield area, dating back over that last 100 years.

 

I am doing some private study and would be interested in any information.
