Anyone got any memories of St Chad's RC infants in Cheetham?  Or St Clares' RC juniors, Victoria Avenue, Blackley?  Or Salford College of Technology, aka saltec?

Hello Violet.  There' a discussion going on about St Chads over on the Cheetham Hill 50s/60s thread.  It may well have had an entrance on Southall St, so could be the same. When did you attend the school?

I'm admiring the architecture of the whole street
