Born in 1934 on Lemont Road, Betty and her family moved to
Shrewsbury Terrace, Butts Hill, Totley when she was two years old and then to Elder Cottage, Hillfoot Road, Totley a couple of years later. Betty lived in Elder Cottage until she married at 23.
In this recording Betty remembers how during the 2nd War, cooperation and mutual support developed between the local people and the soldiers billeted at the Rifle Range and recreation ground on Penny Lane.
