My dear mother, who is 98 years old, was a pupil at this School when the photograph was taken. I attended 24 years later.

The four storey factory fronting on to Radford Road and on the corner of Egypt Road is the 'Pram Factory' Peter Mathieson & Sons Ltd. Pram springs were forged here on the ground floor and an inquisitive boy could go inside to watch if he dare.There he would see and smell red hot metal being shaped by giant workers wearing leather aprons and wielding big hammers on anvils next to the forge.

On the other corner of Egypt Road is 'Egypt Road Primary School'. The boys can be seen in their playground but the girls are not out in their yard on the otherside of the School. Children's School dinners were served up in the works canteen of one of the factories at the top of the photograph. Directly behind the School is Shipstone's Minerals. Notice here the trams of old, later to be superceded by trolley buses and in recent times replaced by trams once again.
