The small house the family lived in was in such poor condition that Hindley and her parents had to sleep in the only available bedroom, she in a single bed next to her parents' double.
Det lille hus, familien boede i, var i så dårlig stand, at Hindley og hendes forældre var nødt til at sove i det eneste tilgængelige soveværelse, hvor hun havde en enkelt seng ved siden af hendes forældres dobbelte.
