It had a ghost, Kitty-Beawt-Yed, (Kitty without a head for non-Wiganers).

I use to deliver orders on the bike, but remember it being a hard trek up the hill, I worked for Stan Cheetom & Ted Hilton over rose bridge.

Tony, did Mr. Staveley's sister work there? He was head at Rose Bridge School in its early days.
