bittersweet6 Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 The numbers actually went up to 58, onthe right hand side, the two houses on their own right at the top. The family at the top house no 58, were called Knowles, the kids were, Peter, Maurice, and Marilin. I'm Marilynn Faser nee Knowles both my brothers have passed. The Dysons lived next door to us on Cyclops Street. I have just made contact with Sue Gillot nee Whittiker. I am in contact with Linda Burgin nee Ward her brother Michael passed Christmas day he was same age as me. Iremember nearly all the names mentioned on here.

PopT Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 Hi Dido I had to smile when you wrote about a return visit to Cyclops Street and didn't realise how small it was. I often go past the area in Owlerton where I was brought up and I always think the same thoughts. I did read where the builders and planners were given the remilt to organise the building of houses so that the maximum returns on rents was achieved by building as many houses on the land. Mind you they were only built to house the workers and so it didn't matter how many people were packed into an area living cheek by jowl. The positive side was the goodness and the community spirit that developed, things that money cannot buy. Happy Days! PopT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
