Nostalgic memories of Lockeridge's local history

Share your own memories of Lockeridge and read what others have said

For many years now, we've been inviting visitors to our web site to add their own memories to share their experiences of life as it was when the photographs in our archive were taken. From brief one-liners explaining a little bit more about the image depicted, to great, in-depth accounts of a childhood when things were rather different than today (and everything inbetween!). We've had many contributors recognising themselves or loved ones in our photographs.

Why not add your memory today and become part of our Memories Community to help others in the future delve back into their past.

In 1939-40 I was evacuated to Lockeridge to live with my great-aunt Mrs Haynes, who I think lived in one of the thatched cottages in the photo of the Dene. She was, I think, housekeeper at the big house in Lockeridge. We lived in the cottage with my great-grandfather and great-grandmother who died in 1940 and 1949 respectively and are burried in St Michael's and All Angels' churchyard in West Overton.
Whilst researching my family history I have found several photographs of classes at Lockeridge School 1915. It could be my mother Dorothy Mortimore with standard 11.
