Fish And Chips at Hest Bank

Marine Drive c1960
Enlarge photo |  More about this photo

when i was young i would go for fish and chips they were great and there was always
something to do some where to ride on our bikes at hest bank.
I now live in australia and in 2006 took my three girls to england for a holiday
and went for a walk along the canal and over the railway crossing they thought
it was wonderfull.
my only sad memory of hest bank was of a girl guide who was killed crossing the road
to the fish and chip shop i knew her brother gordon from the scouts.
I look back at those days as some of my best. Allan Holmes.

Hi Allan, did you live in the Hest Bank / Bolton-le -Sands area? I live in B-L-S and as you can see my name also is Holmes.

Hi Ted, I know where you live, there was a garage just down the road when was there. I used to go to the Packet Boat pub near the canal bridge with my mates when I was young and then over the other side of the bridge to the fish shop, they were great times. Ii left in 1972. It's a nice area to live, my sister lives in Burton in Kendal, there was a great pub there too, all the best mate.
