Hampshire memories

The T.B.L.C

The Tadley Bong Lugging Community started years ago and is still going.

New School

We moved to Baughurst from Australia as my father started a new job at the AWRE at Aldermaston. My new school, the Hurst Secondary Modern, was a fairly new school. I spent the next 3 years there with mixed experiences, though I did have some very good friends who I have now lost touch with. The Baughurst estate was all owned by the AWRE and all the people who lived there were working at the AWRE site. Baughurst was a very pleasant place to live, surrounded by countryside with Tadley and Basingstoke not far away with exelent bus services. I remember some great summers there.

Strawberry

I lived in Baughurst for a short while. I remember the fair. I could hear it from our back window. Also I had a very dear friend there and when our children were small we used to walk to Shyshack Lane for strawberries.

Rookery Farm

My grandad came from Monk Sherbourne. He lived at the Rookery Farm. I used to go there as a child, the kitchen was huge, there were two doors, one went through to an apple store, the other must have been a well, the water ran under the house. It was my Aunt Berta who we used to visit. My grandparents the Allen family are buried in a family plot in the churchyard. Good days.

Scrumping

I lived at Lane End, Bramley no 6 in the circle.  The white cottage in the picture use to have an apple orchard next to it.   Me and my cousins used to try and get apples before the old lady got out of her house but she always caught us and told my gran .   
the house where the car is ,is where my cousins lived the woolfords.               sheila                              

Bramley School Days

I have strong memories of the church as every day at 10 we had to walk down the church path to pick up the milk also.our playground backed onto the graveyard so when there was a funeral we had to come inside which we thought was most unfair.After school we would wonder around the grave yards which was a big no no by the vicker . I have strong memories of the church after being in Australia for some 40years the internet has brought back memories.Any body who went to the church or school i would welcome contact. Andrew Locke

Sunday School

We came back to Bramley in 1958, and I went to school there, until 1964. Every Sunday we used to go to Sunday School. Miss Tubb was the Sunday school mistress, and Tommy Tunstall was the vicar. It was fantastic, a lovely village to grow up in. So safe to cycle round. My name was Attwood in those days, and sometimes my Dad helped out by taking the services in church.
