Evacuee

I was evacuated from Birmingham in 1939 aged 12yrs and was known as Dorothy Davis. I stayed at the Villa Cottage, Bristol Road and went to the local school. My happiest memory of Quedgeley is being confirmed at church and at Easter time we used to collect the moss for the church. Also going to see the Severn Bore with... [more]

Family of Fowler

Not a memory but an historical fact.  I have traced my family back to Leigh circa 1750.  The patriarch was Anthony Fowler, a carpenter from Bishops Cleeve.  He married Mary Attwood of Bishops Cleeve in 1749.  They had 10 children, all born and christened in Leigh.  They were Giles (1750-1752), Mary  (1752-1752), Richard (1753), Sarah (1755), Mary (again 1756-1756), Elizabeth (1758-1758),...

Walks

Brockworth oh Brockworth, what a lovely village! I grew up there and my dad used to take my brother Melvyn and I for walks up the hill. Castle Hill and Coopers Hill. I remember walks from 1975 onwards, especially on the lower slopes of Coopers Hill where we used to stop at the spring and have some water from it. Boy... [more]

Newent and Pickelnash School

I'd have to work out the date, but around there. I moved to Newent from Wales and used to live in a nice little house just down from the Black Dog on the corner of Church Street, if anyone has photos before it was knocked down.
I had some good friends in the Picklenash School, they probably won't remember me,... [more]
