kay1 Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 What about all the shoe shops down "The Cliffe" Boston Shoe Shop, Playfair, Easifit, Truform, just to mention a few, no shoes on display inside in the shop, just told the assistant what size, colour and style, (court shoes, sling backs, high heel or cuban heel) and they climbed the little ladder and a brought a selection from the boxes stacked on shelves. Bringing a lot of memories back.Not forgetting the little dress shops I can remember Betty's. I think it was somewhere opposite the Palace.

petcharlie Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 I came of shiregreen but spent alot of time down the cliffe.I went to Hatfield House Lane school and had loads of mates from down the cliffe.Used to play snooker at aplace at the bottom of Staniforth road on the other side of burtons. I found that the people down there were a different breed a great bunch and I will never forget them.When I travel down the cliffe now wonderful memories come flooding back.How sad to see buildings you knew falling into disrepair. When I left school in 1965 I eventually ended up working down Baker street at Frankern motors across from the Queens pub . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
