Anyone remember Aberdeen Street?

[Highnote]

Leslie Moore lived on Monmouth St and I knew him very well, he was a cousin of my best mate at that time Ken(Curly)Wild, and he also played for Lincoln City and if I remember rightly finished his career at Buxton,Les died a few years ago.The funny thing I remember about Les was when we were young he could not play football for toffee!

I lived in Aberdeen Street from birth 1953 for seven years. We lived at 1 court 4 not to be confused with 4 court 1 which was lower down. Most of my family lived on Aberdeen Street. Everyone seemed to know everyone else. I attended Springfield School which I beleive is still there.

Some good memories there. I lived in Aberdeen St. from when I was born until about 1963 when the street was demolished.

I lived next door to the Bownes family and remember that Lol used to operate the scoreboard at Bramall Lane (but I didn't hold it against him)

Jimmy Crawford lived opposite, as did Les Moore who played football, I think for Derby.

A few others that I remember were the Steens, Hutchinsons and the Radford family

There is a photo on PictureSheffield of the bottom of Aberdeen St when it was being pulled down. This should be the link :
