Hampshire memories
Scene of High Street, St. Mary Bourne, Hampshire
This photograph shows the thatched house of Mr and Mrs Hansford on the right, on the opposite side of the road to the village stores owned by Roy and Ruth Wells. In the centre of the picture, in the background, are the village almshouses. At the time this phograph was taken I was aged 4 and lived next door to Mr and Mrs Hansford with my parents Jack and Doris Howard and my sister Jeanette.
High Street St. Mary Bourne
On the right is the thatched house occupied at this time by Jack and Doris Howard with their daughters Stephanie and Jeanette. Mr. and Mrs. Taylor lived next door with there son Quiller. Opposite is the village Post Office stores.
St. Mary Bourne
This is the War Memorial, which is in the centre of the village. The white house was occupied a few years later by Air Vice marshall and Mrs. Perry-Keene and adjacent is the home of Mr. and Mrs. Cook with their daughter Angela, not to mention the Jack Russell Terriers.
High Street, St. Mary Bourne
In the foreground are the village Almshouses, with two village shops also in view. The first is the Post Office stores and the other owned by Roy and Ruth Wells. Neither are there today.
Church Street, St. Mary Bourne
This shows the notorious bend as you enter the village from the south, which is still almost the same today, made worse by the increase in traffic. The white house right on th bend was occupied by Mr. Pike who lived to be over 100.

Village Street St Mary Bourne
I have good memories of the white thatched house in the picture. I was evacuated with my Mother during the latter part of the War to this house which at the front was the local sweetshop and it was run by Tilly Annals and her husband Fred. The house which is partly shown was owned by Tilly Annals' two sisters and four brothers who kept cows in the sheds behind the farmhouse. I did go to the village school for a few months when my Mother decided that we had to go back to London. Many years later my husband and I visited the Annals and stayed at the white thatched house. I have many happy memories of Fred and Tilly Annals and my wartime stay.
