In 1944 a bomb dropped not too far from our home in East Barnet, Hertfordshire, so Mum and I went to stay with her Mum and Dad, Alice and Bill Tulett at 3 Chapel Lane, Milford (now No.10 I think) where Mum was born in 1907. Bill used to be the local baker and worked for a Mr E... [more]

Godalming Town and City Memories
In Edwardian days cyclists frequented Godalming, especially at weekends. There was a demand for teashops, and Church Street had three - one is on the left here. Also very popular was the sending of picture postcards, which served people much as the telephone does today - Eatons paper shop, on the left, claimed to have the largest selection.

Godalming Town and City Memories
During the coaching era the need to re-shoe horses must have made the blacksmith essential. The forge in Godalming was situated very centrally, in Pound Lane, where Record Corner is now. In the 1860s the smith added to his business by opening a beerhouse, appropriately named the Three Horseshoes, next to the forge.
