FORMER St Barnabas’ Primary School pupil Patricia Turner is researching the history of the Darwen primary school for a display in the library foyer this winter.

And Patricia is appealing to Lancashire Telegraph readers who may have old photos, documents, or articles, about the school.

She said: “I have been able to copy a lot of photos, and it is amazing how much information I have managed to find. But there is probably a lot more hidden away in cupboards and corners.”

Patricia, who was called Bradshaw when she was a pupil there in the early 1950s, can be contacted on antgarlee@aol.com
