More about this scene

At Bishopstoke the River Itchen divides into a number of waterways. There are two mill streams, one known as the Barton River, from which water is provided for the Itchen Navigation Canal, and this branch, which follows the Fair Oak Road with Montague Terrace on the right of the picture. All the streams rejoin the river further south. The house left centre was St Agnes, and became a doctor's surgery. The River Inn has now been built there.

I was actually brought up in Nightingale Avenue, but my dad was a Stoke boy.

The White's, Maurice and Barbara, The William,s and Smith,s, Joan, Roy, Margaret, Jeffrey, and at least three younger ones. Plus Pauline Sollet, Valerie & Johnnie Butt.
