    Derek, are you the son of Eva Howard? she was my next door neighbour would be too much of a coincidence for you not to be as stan was next door but one to us. Eva was a good friend of mine we shared many of our days together and my children knew her as nana

    Just come across this again. The girl friend was Doreen Halsall, who later became my wife, but who sadly passed away on Christmas Eve, 2009.

    Leslie Beard's Mum, Pauline, sadly passed away a few weeks ago; Geoff has been living in a nursing home for some time.

    I and others always referred to it as Four Lane Ends when younger, but it's a long time now since I've heard the term used...

    It wasn't John I was referring to, although I remember him well.... Plus one or two of his neighbours...

    I remember Agnes well. Remember she and my mum (I'm Eva's son) often spent time together. Give her my regards. I'm sure I remember you too, but after so many years abroad names are not my strong point. Regards from Derek
    PS Eva was a lovely lady and had a lovely home That makes me feel proud.

    You might just as well delete my post as well. Without the quote it makes no sense.

    You must have lived at number 52 after 1978 , when my wife's family left there, after being there since before WWII.
    My father in law built the rockery in the back garden, and the bridge.
