I can vaguely remember hearing the siren being sounded from the fire station in Manchester Road, that would be some time in the early to mid 60's. I am not sure when the practise was abandoned. Wasn't the siren located on top of the drying tower?

If you go to Amsterdam, on the first Monday of the month, at 12 noon, all of the city's Air raid sirens are tested. Very spooky sound!
