Avon memories
Flower Family
I live in The Netherlands. My grandfather was born in Pensford in 1858, his name wass Henry Flower. I am looking for his family (there was a lady of the bridge named Flower?).
Toll Keepers
Thomas Burridge who was registered as the toll keeper in 1851 and 1871, with his wife Ann, was my Great Grandfather
Frys The Factory
I remember when the factory used to be Frys (before it was Cadburys) and Cadburys used to be at the top of the hill. My mum was born in Keynsham in 1951 and spent her childhood there and went to Dapps Hill School. We went to Keynsham a lot when I was younger as my nan lived there and one of my aunties still does!
I visited Keynsham a few months ago and although it has changed, I still recognise it immediately. I remember the church well and the parade of shops.
What memories!

Solving A Mystery
This is a last=ditch effort to find the birthplace of my mother Ivy Lilian Wyatt/Brizell whose birth certificate tells us she was born in 1916 at No.10 Sherwood Road Keynsham. Having searched for years and visited the road in question - nobody can tell me where No.10 is - I am told it never existed ( there seems to be an Old peoples home on the site now- but where in 1916 was No.10) She was born on 28th September to Alice Mabel Wyatt of West Harptree Nr Bristol. She was born out of wedlock but why Keynsham? Was she sent there by her family in disgrace ?? Just where was she born. NOT the workhouse - I have checked their records. A total mystery - can anyone help from the archives please . Thanks you so much. Regards Beryl.
My Memory of Going to School in The Manor House
Chew Magna, High School - this was in fact the High School for Sacred Heart High School & Preparatory School, which I attended for 3 years.
I was in my first year senior's when the high school closed, from my memory it was a close-knit family community. People seemed to respect the building which we had the priviledge to go to school in. School sports day that final year was held on the lawns in front of the Manor House and a 'cross-country' fun run was completed in the grounds up to the car park. Teachers and pupils alike joined in and it was an amazing day. Then our day to leave came and it was one of the saddest days, saying goodbye to friends, teachers and The Manor House. I am lucky that my aunt & uncle still live in the village and I have been back a few times to visit the house. The 2nd time in particular, I walked in and... Read more
Happy Memories
This photo brought back a flood of happy memories. The only school I actually liked!
I was second year senior when the school closed. Sad day. I remember the creepy tunnel down in the art room by the sink.
