This class of six and seven year olds was photographed at Church Road School, Bolton, around 1930.

It has been sent in by Leslie Knowles of Rawcliffe Road, Chorley, who lived in Cloverdale Square, Bolton, at the time.

Leslie, who is now 79, is the boy third from the left on the front row with a scarf around his neck.

He later went to Brandwood Street and the Municipal Secondary School, where he was joined by Frank Cartmell -- the boy in the middle of the back row.
