Hi Dave
I found a message in the Guest Book from John Sansom posted October 2007 where he references the carpenter shop in 1946 and mentions Mr Disney ("Pop-Dis") and his bad leg that he had to have a special boot made up for. So he was still teaching there in 1946. He died in 1950.Little tid bits are helping to us paint a picture :)

Hi Dave
Thank you for your response. I will look through the photos on this site. Anything else you find would be much appreciated. It's great to know my Grandfather did teach at the school - adds a bit more flavour to our research. Best wishes,
Carina

Hello Carina,
Mr Disney was a teacher at Goldings he was a wheelwright teacher and I believe he lived in one of the cottages on the estate. There are photos on our site of the boys building the cottages, but we don’t have to much information on the 20s-30s but I will have a look through our memorabilia

Hello, I am looking for information about the estate in the 1920/30s. My father was born in Waterford at 2 Moorfield Cottages, and in the 1939 census he is shown to live in Rosenall in Waterford. We wonder if both were part of the Goldings Estate. These addresses do not seem to exist today. His father was a wheelwright and a teacher and we think may have worked on the Goldings Estate. Both were named Francis John Disney. Do you have any maps of the estate in those times, or details of teachers? Any information you might have or help us to uncover would be very much appreciated. Many thanks,
Carina
