Liphook
My grandfather was the manager of Smorthwaites, the Chemist, opposite the Anchor Hotel in the middle of Liphook. My mother was born in Liphook and lived in the house next door to the Chemist's on the south. My earliest memory of Liphook was to be taken up onto the flat roof of the Chemist's shop to watch the VE day parade. Obviously as a child growing up my parents and my brother's and susters came back many time to see and usually stay with Grandma and Grandpa in Liphook. I enjoyed walks on the Links and down to Hollycombe and other places. I emigrated to Canada in 1964 and moved to the USA in 1968 and have been here ever since. Whenever I get "home" I always drive through Liphook and upto Bramshott Church where my grandparents and the ashes of my parents are buried.
