Shared Memories of Maidenhead
 Maidenhead, Skindles Hotel 1906 (ref: 54092) |
Decanter Set
I own a four decanter set, enclosed in a 10.5 " high by 8" square box, of Amboyna wood, with brass handles and edging, possibly Georgian. Also, held by a brass clip in the top of box, is a 3.5 " glass with the name "Skindles" above a large "S" with a line drawn diagonally through it. Thanks to the internet, and your web-site, I now know, at least, where the glass came from. I have bought many of your photos over the years, thank you for the pleasure they have given me, and my friends. Posted: 14/03/2008 17:53 by Albert Mills |

Happy Memories
My mum Lois and I used to catch the blue bus from Dorney Reach and we would go to Maidenhead to visit the doctor or the dentist and then pop into the library where I would always pick a library book about animals. Posted: 04/06/2007 21:40 by Monica Peck |

 Maidenhead, Boulters Lock 1956 (ref: M7052) |
Year: 1965
Watching the boats in the lock
Summer Sunday afternoons were often spent at Boulters Lock when I was a child. We would have a walk along the river and end up at the lock to sit and watch the boats go in and out. There would be the people who thought they were the bee's knees in their blazers and straw boaters but who usually managed to make a mess of getting in and out of the lock. And the dogs that would jump off the boats into the lock causing pandemonium, fortunately they all seemed to get rescued OK either by their owners or by someone from the crowd that was always there sitting on the side of the lock.
