i pete been in hospital thats why its took time to reply,i remember when the yard use to flood haha we must have know each other i was born at 45 yarouth st there till i was 11 we had a fence round our house because of the dog ,remeber going to toilets at top of yard they were great times wish i had saved school photos

[speedypete0 12]

hi terry

sorry to hear youve been in hospital

yes they were`nt bad days dont hold a lot of good family based memories can just about remember the corner house in the yard being fenced remember steve martin working his way thro the attic spaces [ or so i was told] the toilets were a trial in winter our cellar used to flood with the rain then we had to paddle across the cellar to get the coal [when we had any] sometimes we had to use the tin bath as a boat to reach it

good neighbours in them days everyone used to look after their neighbours

seem to remember eric woodhead had relatives that lived at the top end of the yard

and a scrap car that used to be on the waste ground at the entrance to the yard swarms of maggots were crawling all over the place when they moved it

as i said we lived at 41 next door to the martins rember gary kemp & his brother & a girl called gillian saunders but it was many years ago so memory is not what it was plus there was a lot of family turmoil developing at the time which split the whole family which led to me being put into care & my brother shortly after, my brother returned home to my mother but yarmouth street was my last home as a family tho`i did visit from time to time until my mother left the area

I think they might be different schools, but I'll mention it to Mum tomorrow and see if she recognises the names. Carbrook C of E was on the very end of Bright Street... can't remember the name of the road it was actually on.

 

My Dad went to Coleridge Road though. Albert Rawson and they lived on Century Street.
