I received the following from Marian Barker

Hello - been taking a trip down memory lane. I lived in Silsden from 1949 until 1960. I now live in France but occasionally get back to Yorkshire. I write poems and you might like to read one from my blog mypoetry.blog.co.uk/2007/12/08/a_child_s_eye_view~3412976 My maiden name was Phillips and we lived at 10 Kent Avenue when it was first built.

Our next door neighbours were called George and Eileen Smith. Then next door to them lived my Auntie and Uncle (Bill and Violet Smith).
