Played all over these slag-heaps as a kid - maybe I should have been an astronaut? Got any more of the Blundells area Derek?
John B. Yip. I have a bunch around Blundells, Highfield and Winstanley. Need to scan em and post em
Have you any of Tanpits Derek please, or the house that used to be at the bottom of Foundry Lane?
By the way, mother's maiden name was Winstanley and she came from Highfield.
Tricia. Don't have photos of Tanpits, but I know them. Which house at the bottom of Foundry Lane? I have photo of Wilde's cottages that I will try and post tomorrow. I wonder who your mother was?
Thanks very much Derek - I look forward to seeing them.
The house I mean was the large one on the corner of the steep path (Watkins brow???) that led to Tanpits.
Have added my address
I have posted about 30 photos on the Pemberton, Winstanley and Highfield album sites.
