Nice to see this site.
I was born in Coronation Street, and lived from 1947 till 1964 in the Plies, until my marriage.
I have the fondest memories of growing up in Fairford, an absoutely idyllic life for a child in those days. The freedom we had as children was great, with none of the fears associated with modern living.
I am one of those who wanted to find a 'better' life elsewhere, and have lived in Canada for 40 years now, but still have strong ties to Fairford.
Your photos bring back a flood of great memories.
Nice to see the town as it was, and I look forward to visiting 'Home' again in the near future.
