WHILE rummaging around in her attic Caroline Merry found a snapshot of the past which made her think about her Southport roots.
Taken at Harvest Festival, Mrs Merry (née Cheshire- Bibby) thought it must have been snapped in 1950 or 1951.
She said: “After my mother died 10 years ago I had to clear away her belongings and I remember seeing the photo but I must have put it in my attic.
“Interestingly it had Southport Visiter stamped on the back of it so it was probably in the paper around that time.
“I’m 60 now so I must have been about four in the photo and it’s outside my old school, Kew Preparatory School.
“I live in Southampton now but I used to live in Balfour Road in Southport and my brother and aunt went to the school as well. It would be nice if someone else could remember the photo being taken. And if anyone had a copy of the piece which was in the paper from all those years ago, I’d really like to see it.”
