This shot is of the top of Leicester St near we we lived - there is another shot showing the bottom view nearer to where you lived - I remember the bonfires think there were 3 up the street piled high days before waiting for bonfire night - no need to worry about cars not many of us had one!!!

Leicester Street… I have posted the photo of the kids before but just found this one showing the view looking down Leicester Street. They were taken the same day. The beer off which was on the corner of Luther Avenue was run by Tom and Gladys Stocks … and Frank and Margaret Butler before them..(I think their grandson Nathan Butler is on this site) my mum and sister both worked there. It looks as if it’s boarded up so this photo I’m guessing is around 1969 (Patricia Ann Terrington)
This photo was taken on Leicester Street - Rushworth Avenue is just behind the boys who are:- left to right Mark Keetley Robert Wilson David Sheridan - my brother David Taylor - Tony Keetley and Robert Keetley. May and Ron Ward lived in the house on the corner - they had twins Peter and Geoffrey- who are still in contact with my mum and dad. If I remember right The Winters lived on the other corner - the only one I can recall was Granny Winters — with Mark Keetley, Robert Wilson, David Sheridan, David Taylor, Tony Keetley and Robert Keetley. (Patrica Ann Terrington)

This is Joseph Freestone, my Great-great Uncle, who was killed on the first day of the Battle of the Somme, July 1st, 1916.
He was in the 11th Battalion, Sherwood Foresters. His body was never identified and he is remembered on the Thiepval Memorial.
He had lived as a boy at 60, Leicester St. St. Ann's.
His parents moved to 94, Sycamore Road and his sister, Elizabeth, was living there in 1939, married to James Holt, who had lived next door to the Freestones on Leicester St.
If anyone has any memories of these two families, Holt and Freestone, I would love to hear from you
Joseph was 31 when he died and he left a wife, Ada, and 3 children, Joseph, John and Adelaide.

Military History
Walter Burkitt enlisted in the Sherwood Foresters and sometime after 1st January 1916 was posted to the 1st battalion in France. The 24th April 1917 saw the battalion at Heudecourt and Villers-Guislain, engaged in heavy fatigue work, improving the front line and communications trenches. This was always dangerous work but it would seem that Walter was the only man killed that day. He is buried in Caudry British Cemetery, grave IV.C.2. This would have been a German cemetery at the time of Walter's death and therefore it is possible he was wounded, captured and died in German hands.
