Could anyone place names to faces here. My cousin Pat Riley is on 2nd row up on the right end, next to her is Margaret Prescott. 3rd row 4th from right is Phyllis Shaw and back row 2nd right is Billy Hurst. Think thats all I can be fairly positive about but there are a lot of familiar faces on there. I'm only guessing on the date, maybe someone can be more specific.Thanks.

Hi Susan, I think your estimate of date is correct. I moved up to Cedar Grove, Downall Green shortly after this was taken and joined Pat's class. Would love to get in touch with Pat again. Can you help? Carol.

Hi Carol, Glad to hear from you. Give us your name and I'll get in touch with our Pat and sort it from there. My email - atkins_sue@hotmail.com

Thanks Bert, my Mum said that she thought it was your sister but wasn't sure.

Our Pat is sure that the boy on the front 3rd from ight is Eddie Felstead. My Mum was wondering if the boy-back row 1st left- is Richard Eccleston, and the boy-front row right- is Alan Jones, also if the girl-row front of back row 3rd from left is ? Sherrett. Anybody any idea if she's correct?

Hi I have been looking at the photo of North Ashton Holy Trinity school and you mentioned Phyllis Shaw, I am researching the Shaw family from Ashton in Makerfield and wonder if you can advise the parents of Phyllis.

Can anyone help me? the girl on the second row down from top and second in from right looks like my late mum ( Joan Wall , nee Cunliffe ) but i am not sure . It would be about the same time as she was born in 1940.

If the boy top row 1st left is Richard Eccleston ( aka Dicky eck ) , then it is a strong possibility that the girl 2nd row down from top and 2nd in from right is my mum cos they were in same class . could have a result , brill !

That's me at the end of the left hand side of the second row. I recognise Betty Walker at the end of the right hand side of the second row. I have never seen this before - thanks!
