The Black bull pub has sadly been changed into two houses and a house has been built in what was the Black bull car park.

Around this time I Tina Corrall lived in Longford House (the Tudor house) and have many happy memories of it. I went to school nearby and every year we had a medieval fancy dress party where all the village were involved. Anyone remember. My close friend from the village was Avril Bailey.

Hi Tina. I also have good memories of Cliffe, I can remember going to your house for one of your birthday parties  and I think at one time you were my girlfriend!
I was always down the marshes on old motorbikes and scooters, and I used to hang about with Kevin Edwards, Martin Boardman, Michael Smith, and Paul Musselwhite.
When I moved to Cliffe we lived next door to the Co-op in the middle house.

I was allowed into the pub with my grandfather, Clarence Batchelor, as long as I sat in the corner and kept quiet! I was eventually taught to play darts.

I remember this shop very well, there was still sweet rationing then. Georgeous smells. Mr Parker called on Wednesday to take the order and delivered them on Friday even after we moved to Wainscott. What price Tesco Home Delivery!

Gadshill Place

I lived in Higham for 2 years before moving to Canada. I had 4 children who attended a school in Vancouver BC named Charles Dickens School. After 6 years I took a trip back to the UK with my wife and kids. I went to Higham and we were kindly invited to Gashill Place where of course Charles Dickens did most of his writing. We found it quite enjoyable. Thanks for the memory, Higham. Clive Jeffrey
