The old houses off Penistone rd

Recommended Posts

I remember the Walls...weren't there twin boys, Steven and Malcolm? And an older brother Mick who died a few years ago after falling off a roof he was working on?

 

Malcom is Steven & Janes dad we lived next door to them.

Mick did die a few years ago. When I got married we moved onto Vere Road, Mick lived on there.

The name Pont came from the grandmother Ada Kershaw who married John Arthur Pontefract in 1890 Ada Pontefract opened the shop and for ever after it was known as Ponts, including anyone who lived there.

I was born and raised on Tanfield Road until they pulled the houses down to widen Penistone Road which would have been about 1982-3.

 

 

My mom and dad are called Margared and Harry Waller, I have a sister called Mandy.

 

Some of the kids that lived on Tanfield

 

Steven and Jane Wall

David Smith

Julie and Paul Shardlow

Mandy Goddard & sister

Nick Didsbury

Micheal & Mark Wareham

Ashley & Tracey (sorry forgot the surname)

Andrew Manning

I remember your sister, Mandy, but dont remember you, infact i saw her down hillsboro the other day when i was over in sheff...(i live in chesterfield now) and said out loud..."gosh, Mandy Waller!" She was more my sisters age i think about 37/8?

Mick was older than me, in his 50's I think, The one you mention Rachylou could be his son although I am not sure.

It all ended when she found out that he'd lied to her by saying that they owned a chippy!!!turned out that his mum just worked in one. I dont know the lengths some people go to just to impress your loved ones....she were gutted!:(:( :hihi:
