Re: Hanna Street School

Sorry Byrog, I stand corrected (well sat actually but you know what I mean). I asked my Mother who is a font of all knowledge and she confirms what you say. The shop on the corner of Brown/Ormerod was a Barbers and later a wallpaper shop.
She also tells me that Len's cooked meats, later in the Market Hall, started in one of the shops on that block. There was a dress shop of some kind in Ormerod Street, just down from Higher Antley.
I was also reminded of a toffee shop on the corner of Higher Antley and Major Street which had a fabulous penny tray

More memories - I wonder if there are any photos of the police box which stood on Ormerod Street/Higher Antley, outside the grocers shop? I remember it coming second one night in a fight with a car.
