Early Memories of an Ascotonian

I was born at 40 Bracken Bank (off Fernbank Road) in June 1953. I attended Ascot Heath Primary School on the original site in Fernbank Road, from 1958 until 1964. I remember Richard Dale from these days, although I am not sure if he attended Ascot Heath for all that time. I do remember very well walking home from school with him and playing in the front garden of a largish house on the Gold Cup side of Fernbank Road - I think this must have been where he lived, although I don't remember every going inside. My most vivid memory is of Richard and I sitting together under the hedge in the front of this house and Richard giving me my first ever kiss. I think we were aged six or seven !

RE: RE: Early Memories of an Ascotonian

From the age of 3 until I was 13 I lived in Ascot Heath House, which was adjacent to Heatherwood Hospital. Sadly, the house was demolished in the 60's but would love to discover if there are any photographs of the old house.

I have many happy memories of Ascot and would love to hear other stories about the town.
