Somerford Hall Camp, in Congleton, Cheshire, received its first intake of Bolton pupils in July, 1945.

They are pictured arriving from Castle Hill School, Tonge Moor. The party was led by their teacher Mr Hardman, and the photograph was sent to the paper many years ago by Keith Crompton (centre left, with suitcase).
