i8blades   10 #103 Posted October 9, 2007 The building at the top of Station Rd was Woodhouse East, the one at the bottom of Station Rd was the old Woodhouse Grammar School, later a Community Centre and now pulled down to make an old peoples village. You were right I don't think there was anythng on the site before Brunswick School. hazel  the school at the top of station road was woodhouse county not woodhouse east as for brunswick school ,there used to be the football pitch for the school and just about where the school is now was the brick pond Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Lawdie   10 #104 Posted October 21, 2007 Wasn't born and bred there but, spent many happy summers in Woodhouse. My grandparents lived at 10, Victoria Road....Robert and Nellie Bedford. My Uncles were Peter and Bernard and my Aunts were June, Alice and Hilda. My mother was Barbara. My closest cousins were Michael and John Stevenson who both emigrated to New Zealand. I live in Memphis, Tennessee, USA. I will be 60 in November. Those were the good old days, we just never knew it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Lawdie   10 #106 Posted October 22, 2007 What was your last name? We could easily have known each other. Did you go to Joe's shop on the corner and get those amazing blackcurrant frozen lollies?............did you get fish and chips from across the street? My grandmother, Nellie Bedford, lived to be 106. It seemed as though everyone knew her. I sure did love my 'Nanan'. What is Woodhouse like now, I wonder.
