My partner lived on Howden St till around 1964.

Her name was then Janet Hanson and she went to Maltby St school.

Her dad was Les, who was a builder, and her mum was Daisy.

I used to live on Beall St next to Huntsmans Gardens School. I don't remember you guys - but I used hang out with a buddy who lived on Baltic Rd called Arthur Higgins. He lived in the yard about half way up the street on the right. This would be early sixties. If you look in the book about Attercliffe by Michael Liversedge (spelling??) there's a picture looking up Baltic Rd. In the picture you can see Arthur's grandmother in what was her usual 'perch' looking over the bit of a wall that faced down the street. I left Attercliffe in 1963. One item that used to determine who you knew in Attercliffe as kids was which secondary school you ended up in - Hartley Brook or Hatfield House Lane. Those of us that didn't make the grammar schools of course. Lot of rivalry in my day between the two. Both my mum and dad worked at the Baltic Bakery on Baltic Lane for a while in the 50's. Take care

 

Hi mickr do you remember Michael & Geoffrey Davis lived at 40 Beall st around 1958

The names I remember from my halcyon days on the Cliffe were, Pete Beresford(who I know has posted on here) Michael Nash, Roger Souter, Barry Smith, Michael Bickerdike, Glenn and Denis Thompson and I do remember John Stead and if I do remember correctly he did want to be a jockey.

 

In an earlier post someone mentioned Georgie Woods barbers, he had the most amazing contraption, it was a wheel on a pole with a seat on the top and he used to sit on it while he cut your hair:D.

 

I can vividly recall my man taking me there and I used to sit in horror as Georgie used to singe the hair on the mens heads as I thought he might do it to me:loopy:

 

I left Attercliffe in 1966 to go to Brinsworth where I still am to this day, but in 1990 I bought the Lunch Box café and on our first day there my mam Nellie came to give us a hand, after the café had closed we went outside for a cuppa, she turned to me and said "We've come home kid"

 

And do you know what, she was right, Attercliffe will always be considered as home to anyone who was brought up there in the 50s and 60s:nod:
