St Michaels School

The Church c1960
Enlarge photo |  More about this photo

I used to go to the school here - St Michaels.  Every week we walked up to the church, two by two, past the farm where Wild Ridings is now. I remember when there were cows grazing there and harvest festival service was relevant to the farmers.
Later I worked at Church Hill House on Ward 4 (1973).  The Hospital has gone now and estates cover some of the fields - but not all, grass and trees are surrounding the houses.
My Mother lived in Easthampstead for 49 years.  I don't know if we will go back there now.

I used to go to St Michael's School, I also lived next door to the school, in Blacksmith's Cottage.

RE: RE: St Michaels School

My mum lives on that estate and we were trying to find out some of the history of Churchhill House and I was wondering do you know where the morgue was in Churchhill House as weve been told it's been built on and we were just wondering where it was, thanks :)
