Shared Memories of Thatcham
 Thatcham, Thatched Cottages c1955 (ref: T222041) |
Year: 1983
I lived in No 68 from 1983 to 1985
Of course they had been nicely re-furbished and with all mod cons like running water and electricity. It was a nice experience living in a thatched house and, believe me, they aren't full of spiders and not as much of a fire risk as you would think. We had a very big fireplace in a tiny sitting room and I am a pyromaniac. I remember one day a guy knocking on the front door and, with a very worried look on his face, he said that the chimney must be on fire because it was pouring black smoke. I thanked him kindly but told him not to worry and that I was simply burning rubber car mats! Posted: 07/10/2007 11:39 by Donald Macdonald |

Thatcham, Thatched Cottages c1955 (ref: T222041) |
Year: 1994
I live here
I've lived in the two cottages on the right of the picture since 1994. Two cottages? They were knocked into one in 1973 when the entire row was sold to a developer and refurbished. Posted: 11/06/2006 14:58 by Gillian Lucraft |
