In the early 1970's my husband used to volunteer at St. Chad's in the crypt which housed "down and outs" (or as we called them "tramps). These people would be allowed to sleep there for a night and were also fed soup and bread. There was not such a problem with so many people living on the...

This house didn't have an attic. It was pretty grim. The little boy who lived there used to be fostered by my mom and dad but when his mom (and her latest boyfriend) got this house, he went back to live with them. It was just before Christmas I went to visit as I took Christmas presents. My...

The cinema that used to be in Green Lane became Blundells that sold everything. My mom worked as a cleaner at the cinema and when it closed she was given the curtains which were made of gold velvet. We used to go to Blundells a lot. If I remember they operated on a scheme where you could pay...
