Askamore Community Website

This blog is the work of Askamore Community Council. Our aim is to gather information from the various Askamore organisations and spread it far and wide.

Help with School Pic please.

Posted on August 15, 2015 by admin

This is one of the over 1000 pics which will be included in the upcoming Askamore Photographic Journal.

We need help with identifying some of the children in this pic. Also if anyone can confirm the year – we think it’s 1981. It may take a little while for the picture to load as it’s in higher resolution than other pics on this site.

If you know them can you please respond to the post on askamore.com by clicking on the speech bubble and posting your comment, or leaving a comment on the facebook page.

Thanks in anticipation.
