Living on Cornfield Road

Cornfield Road 1906
Enlarge photo |  More about this photo

I had lots of friends to play with up on the green and also the woods where we used to ride our push bikes or swing on the big rope swing over the sandy bank. I even fell off and broke my arm. I also broke my jaw falling out of a tree on the green at the top of the road. We also had two shops at the bottom of the road, Cornfield Stores, run by a man called Fred, on the other side was Portmans. There were lots of children living on Cornfield Road, like the Grubbs, Hockleys, Frosts, Scraces, it was an idyllic childhood living on this street.

A memory of Reigate in Surrey shared on Sunday, 5th February 2012.
