Cliff Ton 10,458 Posted November 13, 2014 Report Share Posted November 13, 2014 Melissa, it's the length of Norton Street on the far side of Hartley Road. The camera is almost in the middle of Hartley Rd. Today it looks a bit different. http://goo.gl/maps/3tSvT 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

cambridgeST 7 Posted November 15, 2014 Report Share Posted November 15, 2014 The house used for the rifle scene was where Allan Sillitoe was brought up a terrace on Salisbury St Radford not quite a fortune but I was getting 12/6 a week taking papers...I never got to spend the 10/- my mam clipped round the ear thought I'd taken it my dads pocket Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Blondie 1,392 Posted November 25, 2014 Report Share Posted November 25, 2014 I know I'm going back a bit - I am a new member and I am reading old posts.......My claim to fame was my Aunty Grace being the first sheriff of Nottingham in 1976 and my Great Aunt Ada was the girlfriend of D.H.Lawrence ( the man who wrote them mucky books)............My hubbies grandad played footie for Notts County in the 1890's....the only time they ever got to Wembley, I believe he scored the goal, his surname was Mabbott.........

Merthyr Imp 729 Posted November 25, 2014 Report Share Posted November 25, 2014 Er - I'm afraid there's no record of a player called Mabbott in the Notts team for either of their two FA Cup Final appearances, in 1891 (lost) and 1894 (won), the first of which took place at Kennington Oval and the second at Goodison Park - Wembley wasn't built until the 1920s. I can't provide the links as the paste function on here has stopped working for me, but that's according to the Wikipedia entries. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cliff Ton 10,458 Posted November 25, 2014 Report Share Posted November 25, 2014 I'll help with the missing link http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Category:Notts_County_F.C._players&from=M No Mabbotts there. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Blondie 1,392 Posted November 25, 2014 Report Share Posted November 25, 2014 Merthy Imp..........I know he played for them, I can remember my hubbie (Malc) and my mother in law, (Winifred Mabbott, his daughter) telling me - There was supposed to be an article written about him in the Football Post in the early 1960's - At that time, he was the oldest living professional footballer still alive..........I have never been able to get any information about him though, not from anywhere, I tried the Notts County FC a while ago and they said their records didn't go back that far, but he did play for them..............His son, Lez Mabbott was the Cricket Coach at the Nottingham Boy's High School in the 1930/40/50's I believe................

Merthyr Imp 729 Posted November 25, 2014 Report Share Posted November 25, 2014 Yes, I've done an internet search and found details of a John Mabbott having played for Notts before joining Leicester City. Can't do links, as I've said before, but details given on a site relating to Leicester City are: Born 1872 in Nottingham. Position; Inside Right Also played for Kettering Another site gives him as being in the Notts team that played Liverpool on 30 Sept 1893. I searched for 'Notts County Mabbott'. Only looked at the first 3 pages of search results, so there may be other references. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Blondie 1,392 Posted November 25, 2014 Report Share Posted November 25, 2014 Merthy imp - Thanks for the search, first time anyone has been able to give me information about him, he was always being talked about in the family, saw old brown piccies of him in football gear.............My mother in law was his daughter, Wyn, she was born in May 1908, her brother Lez the cricket coach was born in August 1899........They originated from the Nottingham Meadows area, moved to Vernon Avenue, Basford and then on the Armston Rise on the Heathfield Estate, Nottm...............I did see the Football Post with the article written about him years ago but sadly it disappeared, nobody would have thought of saving it............thanks again..... 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The photos in it had been deleted, but I've now replaced them all, and you might be able to see yourself in one of them. https://nottstalgia.com/forums/topic/14419-scenes-from-saturday-night-sunday-morning/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Carisma 5 Posted January 3, 2018 Report Share Posted January 3, 2018 Hi Cliff Ton, thanks for your message about SNSM. I only saw the terrace houses, didn't see myself or the boys playing hopscotch. Would have been nice to have seen a clip. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Carisma 5 Posted January 5, 2018 Report Share Posted January 5, 2018 Hi Cliff Ton. We were playing hopscotch just outside the terraced houses think it was Salisbury street, Radford. Where the old lady was shot with the rifle. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
NewBasfordlad 3,599 Posted January 5, 2018 Report Share Posted January 5, 2018 Blimey I lived in a flat on the corner of Salisbury Street & Middleton Street 71 to 75 and never heard about that, no wonder the police looked at me sideways when I applied to renew my firearms certificate.

katyjay 5,090 Posted January 6, 2018 Report Share Posted January 6, 2018 Wasn't it in the film, the lady was shot in the rear end? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
loppylugs 8,427 Posted January 6, 2018 Report Share Posted January 6, 2018 Yes it was KJ. I have to confess to getting a laugh out of it. She did really have it coming. Wasn't that the lady that played Ena Sharples in Coronation Street. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
