rainbow2411 Posted March 28, 2004 Share Posted March 28, 2004 I lived at Norfolk Bridge which was on the fringe of Attercliffe but I went to Ellesmere Road School. I remember Banners, Littlewoods, Cox's record shop, the skating rink and the Regal Pictures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coddy Posted March 29, 2004 Share Posted March 29, 2004 Sorry mate, i'm from Firth Park. Remember my mom used to take me to Attercliffe to shop at Banners. Do you remember the girls at the tills used to put the money in little containers and put it in a suction pipe? The container would go with a wooosh up the pipe and travel along pipes in the ceiling to the accounts office(presumably) and then come back to the cashier with the correct money. My Aunty Elsie and Uncle Harry used to live at Attercliffe, cant remember their address at the mo, but they used to send us to a little chippy just round the corner sometimes when we went visiting.

Elwood Posted June 11, 2004 Share Posted June 11, 2004 Originally posted by KIWI Many happy and eventful years spent ln attercliffe Lived ln Beall St and Cottingham St Many moons ago I was born in Cottingham Street. Number 54, I think. The house got blasted by a land mine or bomb during the blitz. We escaped to the cellar of a neighbour's house - they were called Gleadall, I think.
