Home and family life ?

Resident?s of Dewsbury recall home ?life in the 1950s and 60s

Roger:

The first house my family ever lived in had one living room and one bedroom.? But I had a very happy childhood despite the fact that I hated the outside toilets.

Eileen:

The biggest difference in the home over the past sixty years is that families don?t do things together any more. For instance, the kids eat at different time from their parents. In the fifties and sixties, the family all ate at a set time.

James:

When I was a child, we lived in a little two-bedroom cottage with an outside toilet. To get to the toilet, you had to go along a passage, down four flights of stairs and across a mud track. And there weren?t enough toilets for all the houses there! I really hated it. Till late into the fifties, we still had a single-tub washing machine with wringers.
