Hi Everyone,

I was wondering if anyone can remember the nursery that was in Talbot Street in the 1950s. I think it closed in the late 60s but not really sure. Anyway if anyone attended it back then and has a photo around that time i would appreciate a copy. I live abroad now and have lost my past photos, which are nice to look back on. I was in one of the yearly photos taken and am hoping someone out there might have a copy. I know at the time it was taken by the Southport Visitor and my Mother had bought the original copy. Thanks in advance for any information. I was born in 1952 so im guessing the photo i am in must be around 1956/57

There is still a day nursery in talbot street behind were hewitts furniture shop was just as you turn into talbot street from eastbank street then turn left before the first house dont know if this is the same 1 tho

Hi and thanks for the response. Yes that is the nursery behind Hewitts. I thought it went years ago. Hope someone out there might have a group photo from back then. It's a long shot i know. Thanks

i to went to that nursery,have got a group photo but i was born 1948 so it is earlier than you wanted.

Hi Millie,

I was born in 1952 so i wouldnt be in your photo, but i would like to see it if you want to upload it here, if not i can send you my email address. I can remember the matron having glasses and a stern face but cant remember her name. The others wore those old fashioned nursing head scarves. But i do remember one nurse called Nurse Fodderingham, or something like that. Thanks for replying
