Hi,

I went to Anns rd around 1953 at 5 years old, I lived on Kent rd behind the wagon. Played on the docker, got into the Heeley Green pictures for a token off a packet of tea and queued up every saturday morning for the kids matinee at the Heeley Palace.

Kath,

don't know about his parents but I remember Paul Heathcoat, he lived in the same yard as me in the first house.

I lived at no 21 next to the Constantine family.

My name's Mike Greatbatch and me and my sister Shelagh lived there till I was about 7, we had a dog called Patch.
