Oak Lane Twickenham

Re: the Regent Cinema razed to the ground for a garage.  Before it was a cinema, it was... a garage.  Really, it was a coachworks called Twickenham Motorworks which was a coachworks.  This belonged to my grandfather, Jotham Harrison and his brother Edwin.

A long Marriage

This is a photograph of the Regent cinema on the right opposite York House in Twickenham where I met my Wife who was an usherette. It has since been knocked down to make way for a garage. She sold me a very long lasting Choc Ice. We courted for 5 years, longer than they do now and married in 1960. I... [more]

Bearsted Maternity Hospital

1948 was the year I was born. My parents were living in Twickenham at the time. My mother was admitted to The Bearsted in Hampton and I was born there. It stands only about 100 yards from Hampton Court Palace front gate, in the road directly opposite. It was apparently a Very hot summer! This summer I went back to Hampton,... [more]

Pubs in Hampton Wick

If the pub was in High Street, Hampton Wick, could it have been:
The Forester's Arms, the Railway Tavern, The Rose and Crown, The Swan, The White Hart, or perhaps The Old Kings Head at the end of Sandy Lane.?

My Quality Time Spent In Hampton Wick !

I was stationed at Bushy Park with the U.S. Air Force from 1957 to 1960 and I have many memories of Hampton Wick, most good but some not so good. I never ever thought I would forget the name of our favorite pub and taxi service but alas I did. We would walk down town and congregate there at the pub.... [more]

Teddington - A History & Celebration

By the end of the 18th century the main Teddington village had grown. It extended from the river down the High Street to a pond opposite Waldegrave Road (which was now a recognized road leaving Teddington), and some smaller houses had appeared in the Park Road area and towards the Bushy Park gate. The manor had leased some of the land on which wealthier residents built some substantial houses. Most... [more]

Teddington - A History & Celebration

FOR MUCH of its existence Teddington has been regarded as a quiet town between the busier Richmond, Twickenham and Kingston centres on the River Thames. Nationally it may be best remembered as the home of Teddington Studios, the location for films and TV productions. However, Teddington's proximity to London and its pleasant surroundings has attracted some significant residents. Also, Teddington is where one king learnt of his accession to the throne;... [more]

Teddington - A History & Celebration

The Creation of Chestnut Avenue The mile-long avenue between Teddington and Hampton Court, flanked by lines of lime and chestnut trees, is the most famous feature of Bushy Park. It started as part of a grand scheme that was never fully implemented. William III had planned to bring the Tudor Hampton Court up to date with the grand, classical designs of the late 17th century. Sir Christopher Wren's idea was... [more]
