The Roof Garden c1960
Enlarge photo |  More about this photo

I can happily remember the roof garden cafe, it was wonderful with frothy coffee in little glass cups, and we would sit on one of the "island's" that the stepping stones in the picyure led to. I also remember my sister Sue being about 3 or 4 and her falling in the pond head-first trying to touch the fish,   Mum had to dry her out in the loo.

RE: RE: Splash

The roof garden was above Harvey's store (changed to A & N, now renamed).  Could see where I lived from up there.  Lovely views of Guildford, which I took for granted as a child.  Thank you so much for this photo.
