I too moved to Shadsworth in the mid 50s. we left Carlisle St, from a two up two down with outside toilet to a brand new house at Shadsworth with indoor toilet AND a bathroom , this was sheer bliss. Like AnneSingleton I have very happy memories of those years , photos of me playing in garden and in the background Arran Avenue being built. New schools were there and the junior school was not ready for our admission , so us juniors were then taught at the "wood hut " ( tenants went to pay their rents there ) until the school was ready. once we were there the Senior school was built. I left Shad in 1977 and moved to Accrington with my new husband.
