Welcome to the virtual home of an English Tradesman.

I am a  qualified Moulder and Coremaker. I started my apprenticeship in 1967 and passed my indentures in 1972. I went to Pudsey college of further education for 4 years from 1967 to 1971, prior to that I went to Farfield Junior School and Buttershaw comprehensive.

I served my Apprenticeship at Crofts Engineers, Thornbury, Bradford.
