Brigadier Hill
Can anyone help with memories of Brigadier Hill.
There was Farrants the grocers, a Tudor Cafe, that sold orange ice lolles, which were mostly ice, a bakers, a church hall, a large stable yard, with straw and horses.
St Michaels School, with a coal fire, near the teachers desk.
A horse trough at the bottom of the hill, opposite the Rose & Crown.
My dad had a cycle shop about 1930 on the corner opposite the cafe, times were hard, and he seldom got paid, for repairs, and knowing the bike was needed for work, finally went broke.
Prefabs in Glenville Road, and a huge bomb crater on the corner, and bombed houses, we as children played in, different times.

Yes, Dorothy I remember Bill the baker delivering lovely warm bread from his bakery in Brigadier Hill. My favourite was a Cottage Loaf, delicious! Rita Marston
