Re: Greaves Street Walkley

The 1939 Register, which was really a census outside the usual 10-year cycle, was compiled on the eve of WW2. At the moment it is only available at Find My Past.

There were several collieries in the Manor Lane area - this was the prime area for working the 'Barnsley' seam with deep mines.

On the 1851 6" map at http://maps.nls.uk I can see, for example, Manor Pit, Manor Wood Pit, Deep Pit, and an unnamed pit which I know from a later map was Manor Castle Pit.

How near to the school, I have a 1948 dir.

Re: Greaves Street Walkley

I think it was 4 doors down. There was a gennel below the school, then a house with it's own yard, then they were the 3rd house, between Rowbothams & Lewises if that helps
