WallBuilder Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 I knew the Askhams who lived at number 72, then further down on the other side was a lass called Tanya. Oh and not forgetting the Duffy? family. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zee1 Posted March 21, 2008 Author Share Posted March 21, 2008 You probably mean the Dunk family, Richard, Gary and their dad. Do you remember the Cardwell family, their dad was a roofer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WallBuilder Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 The Dunk family, now that's a name from the past, I certainly remember them. The other family I'm thinking of had a huge and varied collection of piles of rust [old works vans] they used to disintergrate as they sat there and one of the little lads used to find it amusing to go around cutting wires that came down the wall of houses. Can't remember many other names although it's bugging me there was a lass I knew who worked in the Thorntons factory but her name escapes me.

owl chick Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 I lived at the top of Crummock road in the 70s and 80s. My best friend at junior school was Dawn Davis who lived on Buttermere road. There were the Marshalls, Keith and Sharon and their cousins the Battersbys, Dawn and Darren. I remember the Dunks and the Jubbs, that would be Tanya. And Stephanie Hall lived in the same yard as the Battersbys. We used to have a great time playing marbles and french skipping and racing our bikes. Great memories. I am 41 now and went to Carterknowle junior school if anyone has any other memories of that area in the 70s, Millhouses lido etc!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
