Christmas At Hordern

A Memory of Horden.

When I was three we moved from Horden to Coventry, my father Reuben Dinning was a miner. My first memory was visiting my grandparents, Will and Lydia Martin. They lived at 2 Ash Crescent. I also remember holidays at Crimdon Dean. I was amazed to be able to see the sea from the landing window of my granparents' house. There was no sea in Coventry. Sadly it has been 40 years since I visited Hordon and all the old people have gone. Sadly so have my parents, Reuben and Elizabeth Dinning. I still have found memories of my time in Horden as my brothers Billy, Philip.
