I WAS five years old when VE Day happened.
I lived in Paradise Street.
This was from the Kingsway junction with Chester Way, and just past the Gladstone Club, where it joined Station Road.
I lived in the first house going down Chester Way, just past the club. I think this was removed some time later.
I seem to remember that we had a street party soon after it was announced, somewhere near the old garage door, which I think is still there.
I am sure many years ago I saw a photo of children who attended this celebration party. If anyone has such a photo I would be most willing to pay any costs regarding copies.
