burton street was the school just past the chapel up bamforth street...you probably went to that one on clubmill road...the hightlight of my week was when my brother pushed me in the barrow to the gasworks to fetch the coke....i can always remember that hissing sound when you went in and how the sulphur would sting your eyes...it was great going in the barrow ..not so great coming back falling off the top of the coke..

I went to burton street school back i the early eighties, when it was run by the late, lamented Shirecliffe College, (as was) as a music and drama centre,. I did my drama diploma course there. (with the odd course at Salmon Pastures, and another at the main Shirecliffe centre)
