Lived on salter road growing up my old man still lives there i can still remember going to princess end primary , remember the butchers that used to be opposite the school
I lived in "Elm Crescent" 70 - 73 & went to Locano Road school, enjoyed living on the Tibbington estate back then. Use to play on that big open space at the back of our house, it's now a housing estate. Great times.
I grew up in Oval Rd in the 1950s, so all the area was very familiar to me. The Bruce was known locally as the flea pit because you always came out scratching! I went to to the joint school, and the playground was divided in two by a high wall with a wide opening large enough to get a vehicle through. One side of the wall was the girls playground and the other side was the boys. Woe betide any boys who went over to the girls side!
My dad remembers the Bruce better than me he used to say how run down it was one place I remember the most was the Joint School great time it would be great to go back in time thanks for the comment and watching 👍
I went to Locarno and lived at 107 sycamore road till my 8th birthday, my both nans and grandads lived in ivy and laburnum road for over 70 years. We had a brilliant life growing up on there. I’ve bought my kids up in wombourne they don’t believe me when I tell them we had no indoor toilet lol. I worked with your uncle Allan at the bean, what a man
The Sportsman ohh yes. What a pub. Few pints and then chips from the Cabin on St Marks Road or Frydays. Do you remeber a pub called the Woodman near Princes End? I used to visit a pub with my Grandad and I swear it was called the Woodman but I can’t find any reference to it online, and unfortunately my Grandad is no longer around to ask!!
Great time's at the Sportsman great pub I don't remember a pub called the woodman unfortunately there was one called the coach and horses if that's any help👍
Love your videos, bring back a lot of memories. I was born in Toll End then we moved up to Lichfield St on the Naco estate as it was known when I was 4-5, we were one of the first families to move on the estate. I went to the Joint School. Some of your memories on one or two are a bit sketchy but did love watching them. Thank you.
Bringing back good memories I brought up in salter road till I was 16 no the tibby very well all the street ya said went to school at top cental avenue that no longer there
That's right I went to gaint as well no way you went there there was outside toilets I went all though that school as well I remember that pub as well at end
The cinema didn't no about that and talbat as well the red lion never new about union or the one that was there before the old kwik save and the cot and sports man sorry to go on you bringing back good memories
Hi. Just watched your video with The Bruce cinema. Bit of info it was further up Newhall St towards the lights where the houses are and I think it got burnt down by a local youth who I’m sure was sent to borstal. Also Allen’s club used to be the Canteen and social club for W G Allen’s in Princes End which was on the corner by the lights became an industrial estate. Spent many dinner time in there when I worked there and weekends in the club with my family. Lovely memories from your videos thanks
It might have been at the top of princes end near the royal pub I think it did have the name Allen in the name years later when it became something else I believe that's were the name of Allen's club came from I believe that was a canteen for that work hope this helps 👍
