Hi Diane,
I'm too young to remember this, but interestingly I do know a local
family who's surname is Paul.
The school you refer to is Salesbury CE Primary School (previously
known as St. Peters Salesbury) where myself and my brothers, and all
our children attend/attended.
I'm not sure which Hawthorn Cottage is (if it's still called that),
but I'll look out next time I drive past!

The owner of the house lived next door and had a wooden Gypsy style caravan in his path. My sisters, Annice and Sonia Paul and cousin Sonia Erstling went to a school at the top of a hill, opposite the church. They were aged about 9, 7 and 5. I was a baby and don't remember any of it. Annice was friendly with Dorothy Whalley who lived on Whalley Road. Anyone with memories please let me know more.
