Abbeydale Sec Mod

[Runningman 148]

Hey up lads and lasses.

Would anyone remember a William ( Billy ) Radford who attended Abbeydale between approx 1958 and 1961.

He lived on Herschell Road at Highfield's, later moved to Brincliffe.

You were there at the same time as me, but I don't recall your name.   Who was your teacher in the fourth form?

The infamous Mr Wilson, no doubt.

Interesting in retrospect.  Abbeydale Sec Mod was a inner city low grade school, with none of its own facilities, so we kids had to travel all over the place for the extras.  Carterknowle for woodwork, Heeley baths for swimming, Abbeydale Grange Grammar for sports and cross country.  We spent half our time commuting, usually on foot, but it was still enjoyable to get around.
