Sir, – Congratulations on the piece on the East Wall schoolboy strike of 1911 (Home News, September 14th). It was great to see a piece of forgotten history acknowledged in this way.

Local residents are engaged in a research project in East Wall to record the history of the community, including the two schools which existed in the area. If anybody has any material relating to East Wall or these events, we would love to hear from you. Any information, no matter how trivial it may seem, can help us build up a more complete picture of events, and all assistance will be acknowledged.
