Hi

 

My nan is from parkwood springs, im not sure which road.

Just wondered if anybody remembered her.

Her name was stella white and her brothers and sister are called, Brian, Dennis , Cyril and Fay. If anybody knew them im sure my nan would love to hear.

 

I think my nans mum worked for someone called Mr Bailey???

yes, here's an obscure one...

 

when slade were at their peak, they made a film called flame.

 

in the story noddy holder's fictional mum lives at parkwood springs. a few scenes are filmed of her stood outside her house while the streets around her are being demolished.

 

it was filmed in 1974 and recently got an award for one of the best rock films, despite not being that popular at the time.

 

it was released on betamax, and i looked for years for a copy on vhs but so far no luck!

 

kelvin flats is also in the same film, as it was shot mostly on location in sheffield.
