Aust Farm

A Memory of Portskewett.

I was born in Aust Farm in 1952 as it was my mother's home. It was on the road to Black Rock and my grandfather farmed the fields up to the river. I think the farm's name has changed now. My mum was Winifred Watkins and married my dad Ernest Jones in St Mary's in 1951 and I am their eldest, Kathleen. I remember watching steam trains, walking up to the river and playing at the water's edge- really surprising considering my mother 's brother drowned there. I visited about 10 years ago and amazed that the house where we visited our Sunday School teacher, Miss Lee, had completely disappeared. It would be wonderful to find if there are any photos of Aust Farm and Black Rock Road x
