Nostalgic memories of Pett Level's local history

Share your own memories of Pett Level and read what others have said

For many years now, we've been inviting visitors to our web site to add their own memories to share their experiences of life as it was when the photographs in our archive were taken. From brief one-liners explaining a little bit more about the image depicted, to great, in-depth accounts of a childhood when things were rather different than today (and everything inbetween!). We've had many contributors recognising themselves or loved ones in our photographs.

Why not add your memory today and become part of our Memories Community to help others in the future delve back into their past.

From 1961 through to 1964 I would (with friends) come down to Pett Level initially camping but then in a disused beach hut. We would spend at least three hours a day drinking coffee and soft drinks in this café. It was owned by a local family and staffed by two girls, one the daughter of the family. Initially we would travel down from London on a coach or train but latterly on motorcycles. In the evening we would drink in the Old Beach Club.
