shaunfl Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 I was born in 1933 on Fox St and brought up there by my grandparents. My parents lived on Woodside Lane so I had a foot on both sides of Schoolboard hill (that's how I remember Nottingham St being called up to Pye Bank). After the blitz my grandma and grandad moved to Cheshire and I went with them, and I thank the Lord for that, but it was only for a few years. Hi Texas, School Board Hill was Andover St. My mother always called it that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
