Were you at this Darlaston nursery seventy years ago?

ANOTHER smashing image from long ago has been supplied by Mrs Jill Loach of Wolverhampton. This shows an unknown group of Darlaston children at a day nursery held at a local chapel during the war (circa 1940).

Jill’s mother worked at the nursery for a short time, before training as a nurse. She recalls that the mothers of the children shown were employed producing parts for tanks.

These ‘children’ will be in their seventies now. Does anyone recognise themselves?
