Burncross School..bit of a long shot but..


Recommended Posts

I have a photo I took from the upstairs rear window of our house (119 Broad Inge Crescent) in the summer of 1980. It's not very clear, but it shows the school, with the cemetary behind it. I'll try to get it scanned and posted. My brother went to the school in the 70s. Kevin.

 

That'd be great, thank you! :)

On the corner of Burncross Road and Bevan Way there used to be a stretch of wasteland with a manky stream running through it. As kids, we used to play there (mid 70s). Behind it was a derelict pig farm. All built over now.

I went to Burncross School 1984-1991. I loved that place! I want a picture of the outside, I know that there are a few limited edition drawings of it but can't get one :( There are pics of the outside in some of the Chapeltown & High Green history books.

Hi Claire! Chances are our paths will have crossed as judging by your dates, I was in the year below you! What a brilliant way to have started our lives at Burncross School hey?! :)

Hi, too right! What's your name? I surely must know who you are?!

 

Back then my name was Berni Finnerty but now married! Other people in my class were Nicola Mason, Louise and Ian Salter, Jenny Rodgers, Kirsty Wright, Scott Gregory, Steven Davies, Karl Ley, Sarah Jeffries, Mark Nettleship, Mark Wainwright, Rebecca Mather, Abigail Cooper, Rachel Emery, Suzanne Brown, Lee Simonette, Gemma Deighton, Matthew Ashton, Darren Hulbert, Rachel Frost, David Kempton, Michelle Heeley, Martin Sayles. Those are the names I remember, i'm sure others will come back to me!

You would have been in the same class as Melissa Pearson who was my best buddy back then, although i've not seen her for years now! :)

What is/was your surname? :)

Yes, I do remember you! Me and Melissa were in the same class. Did you live on Charlton Brook? My name was Casson, well it is now again since I got divorced!

 

Yeah! I did indeed! Right at the bottom next to Stanley Road. I'm sure I remember you too! Did you live on the left hand side (going up!) about half way up???
