Puffin4 Posted February 7, 2011 Share Posted February 7, 2011 Hi Thai, Have just checked my sources and the old Fir Vale hospital, later the City General and now the Northern General was also a Poor Law Union Hospital. so you have a choice of two.

The Union workhouse was renamed Nether Edge hostpital where I was born on the 12th. December 1930. Later in 1941, I attended Nether Edge Grammer school, which used what had been the officers of the Workhouse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puffin4 Posted February 9, 2011 Share Posted February 9, 2011 Hi Bill, I also attended Nether Edge Grammar (1950 - 1956) which is the reason for my knowledge of the subject. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike ..............then it became Brincliffe Grammar School which closed in 1965. Mr. Hill who had previously been at Nether Edge Grammar became Head with Mr. Spinks as Deputy Head.
