I Lived Here

Inkerman Barracks 2004
Enlarge photo |  More about this photo

I lived in number 42 between 1953 and 1957. My dad was a corporal in the Military Police at the time and even though I was very young I still remember living there. I remember the swing park at the end of the road that had a maypole in it and I remember the NAAFI. My dad was George 'Sherry' Sheridan and sadly died at the age of 78 in 2002 in Melbourne, Australia. My brother and I returned to Woking in 2001 and saw what was left of Inkerman and the few remaining houses. I would love to live in one of them now!

RE: RE: I Lived Here

I didn't actually live in one of these impressive abodes, but, in 1953, I did, however, spend some very pleasant hours as the guest of C.Q.M.S & Mrs. (Ethel) Anthony 'Pony' Moore who were so kind as to invite me to tea. For a young soldier far from home these occasions were real treats, and I shall never forget them.
