Hampshire memories
My dad was in the army, and we spent most of our time in Germany and at Longmoor Camp. Dad started in the RE Regiment, then later was moved to the RCT Regiment. My father was involved with the closer of the camp. Both my parents loved the area, and settled in Petersfield.

Childhood in the 1960s-early 1970s
I remember Beech Hill very well as I lived over Glayshers Hill from 1958 when I was 2 years old - we couldn't get up the hill in the winters back then and my dad would spend ages trying to get to work. We spent our childhood playing over Arford Common and the big old house at the top of the... [more]

I remember this place so well, this is the bus stop I used to use from Mill Chase School. Many an ugly scrap would occur on the school bus with the kids from the Erie camp, I think that is one of the old army huts the families used to live. I lived at Ludshott Grove in the new houses opposite... [more]

I don't remember Headley Down when I lived... [more]

Hampshire Revisited Photographic Memories
Liphook expanded as a village thanks to the London-Portsmouth road and the arrival of the railway in 1859. The journey from the capital to the naval port by coach took eight hours: the six hours to Liphook cost 13s 6d. In this picture the Royal Anchor is to the right of the chestnut tree.
