White Lion Hotel c1955
Enlarge photo |  More about this photo

I lived in Corringham Hill Terrace 1942 -1950. As an 8 year old I remember sliding down the hill in the snow from the White Lion. I think there was a small pond at the bottom, which used to freeze over in winter. I have a photo of 11 of us boys in our cricket team, myself, my cousin Alan and Bernard Slee are the only ones I can remember. I moved to New Zealand in 1950. Are any of those boys still around?
