PART-TIME FIREMAN
ADDED 3 SEPTEMBER 2005
My Dad,
Willie Brocklehurst, used to work for Gregg's Glassworks and was also a
part-time fireman in Knottingley both at the old station and then in the
new one. I remember vividly watching the Kings Mills burning and hoping
Dad would come home okay. At the time, we lived at 12 Forge Hill Lane and
my bedroom had a good view of the fire. Does anyone remember my Dad
or my mum who regularly made dinner on Sunday for the duty firemen at the
new station? My Dad died on the 14th July 1990 and my mum still
lives in Knottingley.
Does anyone
have any photographs of the old library in Knottingley or information and
photographs on the fire station?
