Buttys Lump, Attercliffe

[kevstones]

Thanks for the info. I also have a family living at Butty's Lump in 1891, John and Emma Nixon. He's down as a Coal Miner and obviously worked in one of Huntsman's pits.

 

Wish they would put some life back into the 'Cliffe. Remember it with affection in the 60's when Attercliffe Road around Banners was a busy place.

I was born in 23 Railway Cottages in 1942 my Grand Parents, Charlie & Sally Darlow lived at No.19. I spent most of my childhood days in and around the are and as far as I can remember it was refered to as "Railway Cottages" bacause all the tennents had links to the railway either as past or present employees. The families I can remember are the Woolens, Hughes, Shepperd and Mann. My family used the Railway Inn, now the Noose & Gibbet. My Father and Grandfather were engine drivers at Darnell Loco where I spent many a happy day. If anyone has similar memories please drop me a line.

My father was born at 23 Railway Cottages in 1925. If anyone has a photo of these cottages I would be really grateful,

Hello Suerod, What a coincidence, although 17yrs apart. I have some family photos taken outside No. 19 which will show part of the Lane in the background. I will look through my fathers albums to see if there are any more. Regards, William.
