OH My.

Started my fishing in Chadwicks about 1960. Still fish there now. What memories that short film has evoked.

Could anyone put a time period on the stanton and bath street footage ?

Thanks for posting this. My grandad worked here, and it is fascinating to see how it was the time he was there :-)

This footage also features Stanton Staveley in Barrowhill near Chesterfield, it's sister plant.

Yes it is Bath St Ilkeston. Both my grandads,my dad and my uncle worked at Stanton. It is now a ghost town.

I used to ride my motorcycle from Ilkeston to Sandiacre through the iron works at about this time. 

Is the last street scene Bath St, Ilkeston?

thanks

wow - nostalgic - anymore?

Good to see 'workers' in Stanton, without 'hardhats' & 'hi-viz' jackets - that's the way it used to be
