    I enjoyed your website with the photographs of Derby.

    I was born in Derby in 1935 so my Derby is the one of war years,the 40s and 50s, grammar schools and Derby Tech. The Derwent Hotel, the Cheshire Cheese, the Nottingham Castle and the Plaza. Also frequented the Bell and Jimmies and the Severn Stars with the rowing and cycling clubs. The Severn Stars was home brewed in
    those days - so was the Nottinham Castle.

    I lived in the Ashbourne Road/Uttoxeter Old Road area so knew Friargate well - locospotting at Friargate station and at the Midland.

    I met my wife in the Derwent Hotel on her 18th birthday. We had our wedding reception at the Friary Hotel.

    A lot of what I knew has gone - the West End, Siddals Road area and many shops - Midland Drapery, Ranbys, Ratcliffe's toy shop, the Central Educational book store.

    Keep up the good work.

    Great site, i lived in Stone all 1952-1976 first in Hollands way then in old Town Lane. had a great time at school St Michaels then to the senior school in school lane and finished at the secondary just over the bridge towards Rushall. had many a good music morning with Ray & Roy Jones listening to Beatles, and great times with all at the Queens and the Royal Oak. Still visit there but have not yet met up with any of the old crowd.
