She used to recall the celebrations when the first bus came to Green Haworth .

Every morning before school she went to the confectioners at the bottom of Fielding Lane for her grandad's special loaf of brown bread . Then she went back down again with her sister to St Mary's school on Moscow Mill St .

And before all that she had to go to the well at the other end of Cross Edge for water .

In later years she said that they never bothered , that it was just something they had to do .
