Incident in Down Hill


Was a lovely place to live 70s/80s I played there with friends. I still use the butchers it's been run by the same family since the 60s.
Most of the estates were rough but it’s not when you live there.
People used to say Barclay Ct and dame dot was too but I went to school with those people, grew up with them or their kid brothers and I had no problems walking back from the town or from friends houses.

I know exactly what you mean. I had friends from school lived in Barclay Court and down Dame Dorothy we had many happy days down there.
 
Lived round there when I was younger. All the lads I knew from that way moved away. When I've passed and looked down towards what used to be the primary school the place just looks a mess.

I grew up in Downhill..we moved away in 1982..was always a nice place to live..I’d heard a few tales of burglaries and bits of petty crime round about the time we moved.
