Lived in the village from 52-74 and went to Woodhouse West School. Remember all the old shops. Father was manager of McKennings (general store) which was just off the junction between Sheffield Road and Stradbroke Road.

 

I remember McKennings very well I think that was the shop that sold draught beer? you just took your empty pop bottle to have it filled ( did this every Sunday lunch for my uncle) happy days:):):)

Glad to have been of service - I probably served you as I use to help out when things got hectic. I certainly remeber the sherry on tap!

Yes, you are correct. I remember Mrs Hill living near to the Lambert family. The other Lambert family lived on Mauncer Lane in the circle. I married Mick Lambert. I think Mrs Hill's daughter Betty, used to play with Brenda Lambert my husband's older sister.
