Nostalgic memories of Cippenham's local history

Share your own memories of Cippenham and read what others have said

For many years now, we've been inviting visitors to our web site to add their own memories to share their experiences of life as it was when the photographs in our archive were taken. From brief one-liners explaining a little bit more about the image depicted, to great, in-depth accounts of a childhood when things were rather different than today (and everything inbetween!). We've had many contributors recognising themselves or loved ones in our photographs.

Why not add your memory today and become part of our Memories Community to help others in the future delve back into their past.

I worked at Zwicky in Buckingham Avenue and some lunch times my friend Ann and I would have a game of bowling, a light lunch, then back to work.  My brother Frank used to be in one of the bowling teams that played in the evenings.  My friend Jean and I would be up in the bar and would watch the bowling from the viewing windows.
This is the Barleycorn on the green. This was a turnaround point for the 62 Thames Valley bus to Chalvey and Slough.
This pub was called The Swan, on the village green.
This post office was called Muttons. It was run by Dorothy Mutton. I used the store to buy crisps and sweets on my way to Westgate school.
This is closer to Salt Hill than Cippenham.  The road on the left is Twinches Lane, the factory on the right is probably Crane Packing, and the view looks west!
