I can name them bar one, and its killing me ,He,s small jet black hair i remember him being a good player and seem to think his name is Glyn or Glen but cannot for the life of me remember his name. Top Left IAN BOOT, TONY CRONSHAW.RAYMOND CARLTON,JOHN GALLIGER, Bottom myself,STEVE CANTER,GLEN,WESLEY HEYWOOD. Any way iam going to scan it into the computer and see if i can figure out how to put it on the website, or email it to you ,it will crack you up mate, his name was glenn fearn...and a blade....and yes he was a good footballer...this is now doing my head in because i cannot remember you...i am working on this new book called kid of steel about my childhood and would love a copy of that photo.... this will be my third book...not bad for a kid from shirecliffe.....loved those days....did you live locally.....and if you fancy a beer and a chat get in touch..

Hi eastbank Yes Glen Fearn, You wrote two books .and a third on its way? that,s tops that mate. I was born on Donavon road ,then moved onto herries road 100m up from the Five Archers,but later moved to Foxhill and still went to school at shirecliff.I was in the year below you at school so didn,t see you in the senier school, You mentioned Cob in an earlier thread, i saw him a few years after we left he was recovering from a broken neck. My old pal Ian Boot moved to Foxhill about the same ,my sister saw his brother a couple of years ago i was stunned to find Ian was no longer with us. I still seem to come across Steve Canter from time to time. Anyway i have finaly scanned the photo onto the computer(the scanner just didn.t want to play for whatever reason) Not sure how to put it on the website ,but i,ve just realised your email add is on the site(marks out of 10 for observation skills 2) I have a couple more photos in the senier school team but you must have left then,but you will know all the lads.I came across the old photos in my parents loft whil i was working on their kitchen lights. plees egscews minur speling mistakes,let me know if you get the photo, cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tara Misu Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 Hi there. Does anyone remember the very big house on Shirecliffe Road(I think) which had some modern houses built in their front garden. When I was young it appeared to be a mansion. I think there were three of them. The last time I went up to look it had massive electrically operated gates on. I had a relative renting this property in the 1950's and swear it was haunted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patto Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 Lived on the east side of Herries Road, Barrie Crescent. We called ourselves Southey Green. Went to Shirecliffe schools 1953-1965. Spent many happy hours in Five Arches and Timbertop. Emigrated to Walkley 82. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Wroblewski's used to live in one of the big houses there, i used to play with the kids when younger in the mid sixties, was a massive house with large cellars, quite spooky.

Tara Misu Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 It would have been round about 1958 when I used to visit, and I have no doubt at all that it was haunted. There were three cellars running in a line and at the end were three stone steps which had been sealed off. This seemed to end in one of the sitting rooms, and this room was very strange in that each morning when Margaret got up the sofa had been moved from the wall and the fingers were off the clock. Two couples shared the house and although there were two children, baby cries were heard coming from the same room when the children had been taken out. The family's three boxer dogs would never enter this same room. There was a banquet hall and a front room with a grand piano and still loads of room. Wonder if the people living there now have experienced anything strange. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
