Hi All, I was brought up on newhall road in the 50s, we lived at number 77,would love to hear from anyone that may know me.Names I remember are John Elmore and Angela Guite. My names Keith. Thanks.

 

John Elmore is my brother we lived at 7 court 2 on Newhall Road in the back to backs opposite Sandersons . I can remember fetching bowl of pudding and custard from their canteen for 4d in old money. We moved to Sicey Avenue in 1956. John is the only one of the family still living in Sheffield. The rest of the family now live in Lincolnshire

My family lived at No 61 Newhall Road, but this was in the 1940s, in the same yard as the Pepperdine's who kept the local fruit shop (a few doors away) until it passed to the Evans family. I think the Evans' son was called Arnold. At No 61, for a time our front room was taken over by a woman called Yeardley (from Don Road) and used as a hairdressers. Roy Jow lived not far from us, on the opposite side of the road. We later moved to Paget Street, but I never lived in the Newhall area again after some time in late 1951 when we moved to another part of Sheffield. However, I always remember the place with great affection. Some great people lived down there.

Hi all

 

I am Roy Jow's daughter he lived on Newhall road not sure what number though. He had three sisters Audrey, Pat and Carol the youngest. Sadly there is only my dad and Aunty Carol now. He always speaks about the good old days and how friendly everyone were. My grandad Ernest had a scrapyard at the bottom of Broughton Lane.

 

If any questions I'm sure my dad would love to hear from anyone.

Hi Trace, Give my best wishes to Roy. We were in the same class at Newhall, and for a time I lived on Newhall Road before switching to Paget Street. I met Roy a few years ago at a class reunion, and it was our first meeting for many, many years. I don't think Roy came to the last reunion. It is now some time since we all got together, and, sadly, I doubt if it will happen again. Is Roy on Facebook? Send me a PM. K
