Boyhood Memories
My aunt Jessie (King) lived in the house on the left of the picture from around 1920 to 1954. In 1954 she moved out and my uncle Sidney (Edwards) ( her brother) moved into the house and turned it into a little tea room come snack bar. It was very popular with the kids at that time who could spend a few pence on a bottle of pop and a packet of crisps. The house next to the tea room was a bakers, owned by Mr Stow.

 Sproughton, Lower Street c1955 (ref: S584008) |
Post Office And School A memory of Sproughton, Suffolk The first building on the left was the old Post Office (owned by Mees). Just to the front of this is a small footpath that leads to my Mum-in-Law's (Janet Halls nee Smith) old school. It was also the village hall. It still has the green tin roof..... noisy when it rains!!!!! Last edited: 03/01/2007 18:37 by Tami Cross-Halls |

Buying A New Drum For The Whitethorn Morris Band In Chelmondiston A memory of Chelmondiston, Suffolk I have been the band leader for the Whitethorn Band for more than twenty years and in 2002 we decided we needed a new drum. By chance we discovered Barry Askew in Chelmondiston who used his woodworking skills to hand make perfect drums suitable for morris musicians. We commisioned a new drum and one fine Autumn day in 2002 I drove several of our band for a day's outing to Suffolk where we met Barry Askew and tried his drums. Having seen his workshop and completed our purchase we then had a splendid meal and dirnks in a river side pub at nearby Pin Mill. It was a lovely outing in a beautiful part of the country and our drum continues to give the Whitethorn Band excellent service. Thank you Barry Askew and thank you Chelmondiston for lovely memories!

 Boxford, Stone Street c1955 (ref: B620012) |
Year: 1870s
Stone Street, Boxford A memory of Boxford, Suffolk William Balaam born in Stone Street, Boxford in 1870 or thereabouts. He was my Grandfather's stepfather. Grandad often talked of Boxford. It is believed that later in William Balaam's life he became a Mayor or Lord Mayor - however, we are not certain which town in the UK he became Mayor of - because he moved to London at some stage and married in West Ham, Essex. His father's name was Walter Balaam. Hope someone living in Boxford, Suffolk remembers the Balaam Family. Annne Posted: 08/06/2008 14:26 by First Name Last Name |
