Am I right in thinking there was a chip shop on the left hand side of Wood Street walking up from Penistone Road or is my memory failing?

I lived on Penstone Road between Dutton Road and Beulah Road opposite Hillsborough Park until 1962.

 

Happy Days!

 

Still trying to trace, would you know of any houses that may have been on Penistone across from Burton to Chaple now thinking my 5yr legs to far for Upper Slack??

My great uncle Tom Glossop lived next door to the Fieldhouses on Farfield Road.

 

Does anyone remember them from the 1950/60's?

hi retep

 

I knew Mousey but not seen him for years.

 

I do not understand your message fully, can you explain?

 

I know the Fieldhouse family was quite large and so they lived in several places-
