Shared Memories of Cranborne
 Cranborne, Wimborne Street 1939 (ref: C694004) |
Cranborne 1938
I was living at Cranborne where my father was the police sergeant. At the time of a crisis, members of the government came to stay with Lord Cranborne at the manor. The matter of security arose and it was decided a policeman should be on duty at all times as he would notice any strangers. Around the same period the massive German air ship flew over at a few 1000 feet. The Hindenberg; the largest thing I have ever seen in the sky. Last edited: 28/04/2008 10:22 by Painter Robert |

Cranborne In The Early Sixties
I lived in Cranborne for two years from November 1963. My father owned the shops at the far end of the terrace in this picture and the building immediately facing, although it was derelict at that time. My sister and I were enrolled in the local secondary school that had opened two months earlier. Posted: 21/05/2007 13:05 by Gillian Graystone |
