Sharps Green
I spent a lot of time at Sharps Green in the 1940s and early 1950s and have very fond memories of the times my friends and I spent there. I lived not far away in Grange Road and my grandmother, Emily Randall, lived at Rose Cottage, the house on the corner of Lower Rainham Road and the road down to Sharps Green. The Cuckow family lived in the house right at the entrance to Sharps Green. My mother was raised at Rose Cottage which still stands on the corner. When I was a boy I sang in the choir at Twydall Mission Church next to my Gran's house. Sadly it was burnt to the ground by kids in the 1960s. I still visit the area occasionally even though I have lived abroad for most of my adult life.
