I went to that school with my 2 sisters between 1959 and 1966 . It was called English Martyrs Primary school and the Head teacher was Sister Andrew who lived in the Bar Convent across the road in Blossom Street

We lived in the the flat also from 1969 to around 1980.
my dad, Bill Brunton had been foreman across the road at the workshop until we moved out of York in 1965 but returned 4 years later. At the age of 12 it was fantastic place to live.

[…] Next to the Windmill is now the Premier Inn. The clocks were there when this was Forsselius Garage. It sold Morris and Wolseley cars. More details can be found on the York Stories website. […]

Oh, how lovely to read this. I was explaining to my 30 year old son about the pubs we used to frequent, in my earlier childless years! I mentioned Brubakers( the best pub ever). It is as a great atmosphere in there. My grandad/ dad used ti work there as mechanics when it was Fosselius. My grandad was called Arthur,my dad, Dougie. I don’t remember them working there, only the reminder of them talking about working there. Thanks for the memories Audrey xxx
