Hi Alyson and Welcome to Rootschat.

I’m thinking you’re describing the prefabs built after WWII near Heaton Park in Manchester.  Unfortunately I don’t know your family but there’s a thread about the prefabs on the Manchester Forum which might have some people who do.

Not sure I’ve been much help but if you’re after any info about your family tree please let us know.

Good luck in your quest,

Fionaoh

hi Alyson,Sorry don't recall your family name.We lived at 41 Broadmere, so quite a way from yourselves.I went to Parkside Primary School, in Heaton Park, which was an old RAF building, schoolrooms round a square courtyard, quite draughty!!! There was always in winter a roaring fire! I was there 1954 to 1960, and remember names from my last year.Teachers were mIss Jennings, Miss Hampson, and Mrs Mawdsley and a male teacher (can't remember his name)

Our name was Makin, and neighbours were,Fowlers, Days, Dewhurst,Standerwicks, Wilkinsons and Sedons. My best friend was Lorraine Sedon, and we spent hours roller skating around the estste.  Also was in the Guides at St Margarets then at the Heaton Park Methodist (better  looking scouts)!!!!!!
