Hello Kinza

Yes, I remember them all. I was at school with one of the Eadie family - didn't you move to Cromford Road later, just past Argyle Street - and I reckon with at least one of the Haslams and Hensons.

I'm in the same boat - don't live in Langley Mill any more, but keep going back. And yes, it is sad - the whole thriving industry that was Langley Mill has disappeared.

What can you remember about East View Terrace and the gas tanks? I can picture the scene still (I lived on Ebenezer Street from about '62 to '66), but much of it is blurred vision!! And what about the scrap yard, if that's what it was, at the bottom of North Street (where there is now a bit of a car park) - can you remember that? I was caught playing in there once by my mum (my memory says there was a tank in there, but that was probably just my fantasy), and got a good hiding for my trouble!

Thanks for taking part in the forum.

Cheers

Robert Mee
