My mum was born in Canada House, August 1925. Her father was based at HMS Pembroke. The family lived in Gordon Road, which is where her brother was born in 1933.
Mum and her elder sister (born 1922) attended Barnsole Road school, and I have a few photos of my auntie and her school friends there. The family moved away at the end of 1933.
