I used to live there when I was a kid,1986 number 113 (in the middle) it was a really spooky house and definately haunted.There was wasteground before the flats at the bottom on the right,I think it was an old church or something like that,maybe we were wrong as we were just kids at the time.

Yep Mrs Goodwin was there when i was there.. It got knocked down when i was about 9 or 10 it was in the 1990's i know that for sure. The Woodlands school did a Time Capusule for the school i dunno weather they opened it up yet but i know where exactly where its been put in the new school.. The infants part was scary to the basement was well freaky.. Basically the whole school was freaky.

if you remember we was all asked what to put in the time capsule at the new site at westone lane?? I can remember the infants with the glass over the slope to the yard but don't actually remember the basement...was that at the bottom of the slope to your right?? I remember a door but I never went through it.

A lot of people brought up large familys in terraced houses that where 2 up and 2 down. It was the normal size house in the town for most working people in those days.
