Bedfordshire memories
The gable end of the house on the left is 39 Mill Lane and Back St starts at the junction over the hill and not visible here. My father built the house about 1935 when he was 21 years old. I grew up there until 1955 when it was sold and we moved from Clophill for a short time. We returned in 1957 and lived in the Old Police House in The Slade until I married in 1966 and brought my first home in Back St. I have traced my family's time in Clophill from about 1750 until 1980 in a new book which is now available.

This is where I live, it is no longer a village post office. It was built in 1680, and we are returning it to a residential property.

remembering my brother Paul Harris who has recentley died
My brother Paul spent many happy days here but didn't realise it at the time. He was the best brother anyone could have, for the last 16yrs he has been disabled with MS always a smile never complaining. This is my tribute to him my lovely brave brother.

Luton - A History & Celebration
Military vehicles from the local Vauxhall Bedford factory were tested at Wardown Park during wartime. Public swimming was banned in 1950 in an increasingly safety- conscious age that valued its people more after so much wartime carnage. At least boating is still legal! (see left). It is fitting to end on one of the most profound reasons for Luton to celebrate recently: the local football club, Luton Town FC, came top of League One and were promoted to the Championship League. (The club still honours one of its former (Robert Cook) (Robert Cook) Martyn Coote conducts a live radio show at Bute Street Hat Museum. The arrival of BBC Three Counties Radio in Luton meant that a daily paper was no longer feasible; covering Bedfordshire, Berkshire and Hertfordshire, it makes Luton a reference point for a wide area.

Luton - A History & Celebration
Looking towards Chapel Street from Cheapside, we see a variety of building styles. There are just enough people out to catch one’s interest, and make us wonder who they were and what they were doing all those years ago.
