If Joshua went to Painsley.....1) Which primary school did he go to? Caverswall? If so, has anytime looked around The Hollows? Otherwise, 2) did he go on a school bus that went through the lanes/Dilhorne? I'm thinking around Foxfield, Foxfield level crossing (tickhill lane, Dilhorne).....
We went to st filumenas in caverswall, and went to our grandmas in Weston Coyney via bus on the way home. Painsley we lived in Meir Heath, for the first couple of years mum dropped us off at our cousins in Cheadle and we walked in with them, after that we caught the bus from Meir Heath to Cheadle
Did you play at the brook running under/near Caverswall road? just thinking of childhood comfort locations
Yeah we did, some of that area has been searched by family but probably not all of it
Weston Coyney fields around the back of the middle school? Just trying to jog memories, really. I grew up around there/went to the same schools. 😖
We went to Weston Coyney infants and 2 years of the junior before we went to st fils
Was he fond of running? At Painsley, the x country route used to be along the disused railway line towards the steep bank where TT pumps is. ...?
He prefers sports like tennis, squash, football. He did some running when we lived in Meir Heath a couple of years ago
Have police viewed CCTV footage from Stoke train station and all others surrounding. Sorry if this has already been done - just thinking of every possibility. Hope today's search brings some news
ust a quick thought, has anyone contacted the councils maintenance depts, I know Newcastle borough use Glendale for their gardening services, just wandering whoever maintains the woodlands and countryside spaces for grass and hedge cutting/tree felling etc. These people are probably in rural locations a lot.......just a thought x
