Looking for old Shiregreen mates


Timbuck

Recommended Posts

I lived in Shirehall Rd. the house was brand new, I was a baby 1933, we stayed there until 1940, moved then to Hatfield House Lane. Names remembered ,Thomas, Webb (the chimney sweep), the Ebbs twins. My name is Miller, anyone around still who remembers me?
I remember Webbs the chimney sweeper my friend "Freddy" and I used to go to his house cos' he had a talking Jackdaw in a cage and it used say all sorts of things...Mrs Webb was always very nice to us young lads.

Timbuck, I think the number of the house in Shirehall Rd. was 264, my parents said they moved into the new house with a minimum amount of furniture. When we arrived home after a weeks holiday in 1939 ther was the parts of an anderson air raid shelter in the front garden.

The webbs had a daughter , Babara , I think. We somehow inherited their dog, it was a black labrador called Judy. The Webbs house was a bit of a mess but a wonderland for small boys. Mr Webb used to tell us stories of his time in the Navy.
