Worcestershire memories

The Cadena Cafe

High Street c1950
Enlarge photo |  More about this photo

This shot of the High Street presents the signage for the Cadena Cafe, a chain of national cafes (in the 'Lyon's' mould) where shoppers met for coffee and light meals. I have fond memories of visiting the cafe with family and friends, and in particular the stairway down to the coffee lounge, below street level. The coffee lounge was, as I recall, adorned with plants and greenery in subdued lighting and a 'cozy' atmosphere. Worcester's beloved Cadena has now closed, and is now the premises of the Alliance and Leicester.

My Grandmother, Edith Joyce Gummery, who was born in Tibberton near Worcestor was a volunteer nurse during WWI and I have an entire autograph album of hers where wounded soldiers who were housed at Battenhall Lodge signed her book.

Living in Worcester

High Street 1931
Enlarge photo |  More about this photo

From June 1965 -May 1969 I lived with my family over the Stead & Simpsons shoe shop where my husband was the manager. This is the shop centre right of the picture with the 2 white blinds out. The large 3 bedroomed flat was on the top 2 floors and my youngest son was born Nov 1967 in the top floor bedroom.  The shops on street level on this picture have changed, but the upper floors of all the buildings remain unchanged and the High Street is now pedestrianised.

Swimming Across The Severn

I remember swimming the width of the Severn and back again as a sea cadet at the age of 9 or 10, from the boathouse steps.

143

Malvern Road, St John's c1950
Enlarge photo |  More about this photo

Well it was Malvern Road where I grew up and lived until I was 14.
Our family dwelled in no. 143- the vicarage for St. Johns church, half a mile away.
Malvern Road really is a 50s treat and helps form a marvellous, leafy suburb that is St. Johns.

Place of Birth

St Dunstan's Crescent 1907
Enlarge photo |  More about this photo

I was born in one of the houses shown in this photograph. I lived there for about 4 years and recently went back to St Dunstan's Crescent just to see how much it has changed. I was pleasantly suprised...even the allotments just across the road, where I often went with my Grandad, is still there.

Mr Claud Andrews

The Shambles c1950

My grandfather who was Claud Andrews owned and ran the butchers shop nextdoor to Pratleys. I am looking to see if there are any old photos of his shop.
