I moved to Shadsworth in 1957 when I was eighteen months old and the houses were newly built - I have photographs of my dad digging in the garden and in the background you can see houses being built and the roads being surfaced. I lived there until I was twelve when my parents bought their own house at the other side of town. Shadsworth was a lovely place in the 1950's and early 60's, I have some very happy childhood memories, but even then there were rough areas where I wasn't allowed to go.
