The Palace

A Memory of Eltham.

As a child we lived in the Vista and our back garden ran alongside the cow fields, my friends and I would go across the farm to get into the palace grounds. There was a swimming pool that had dirty water in that was perfect for collecting frogs spawn and the bluebells were amazing! Sadly I decided to show my mum and dad this special place and they were horrified how dangerous it was! and I was never allowed there again. But I had been going there for years and really loved the palace and I always tell people that i was born next door to a Palace which sounds very grand!.
