'GARDEN CITY COMMUNITIES AND THEIR FUTURE'

I am writing to introduce an exciting project that the Town and Country Planning Association (TCPA) launched last month that will run for the course of two years to look at garden city communities and their future.

The TCPA was established initially to promote the ideals of garden cities from which new towns evolved. Following a conference held by the TCPA in September 2004 to discuss the way in which the relatively modern heritage created in the garden cities and new towns should best be managed, the TCPA launched the project mentioned.

Port Sunlight will be a key case study in this project. The TCPA would like the Port Sunlight Village Society to be involved in the project and therefore I would be grateful if someone could please contact me so that I can send further details about the project by post.

Yours sincerely

I am researching my father's family in Port Sunlight and am particularly looking for information about how to contact Church Drive Primary School where my father and his siblings went from about 1917 onwards. I have searched Google in vain for a contact address or phone number for the school so would be glad of an email address etc.

If anybody has recollections of the Moore family who lived at 130 New Chester Road I would also be delighted to hear from them. My father's best man at his wedding in 1937 was a Ron(?) Hancock. My late aunt, Iris Lister, lived in Port Sunlight all her life but my father moved to South Africa in 1951 and died there.

Hoping to hear from somebody,
