Year: 1940s
Mountnessing School
I was at school in the 1940s. I remember a teacher there, I believe he was a Mr Davis. I remember the annual sports, these were held on a field just a short walk from the school. The days of the great snow fall in 1947, living at Padhams Green it was a mile walk down to the village and the snow filled the road from bank to bank and we had to walk along in a field (I think I skipped school that day). I also was in the church choir, I think until I left school in 1953. We used to have some happy times in the summer going to see Mr Tom Morgan at his little shop, buying sweets and drinks (non alcoholic). I now live in Birmingham and have done for the past almost 50 years but take regular trips down to Mountnessing. Last edited: 10/10/2008 12:23 by D Avid Emberson |

Year: 1870s
Bariff's Farm
My Great Grandfather, George Collyer, farmed at Bariff's Farm, Mountnessing in the 1870's and early 1880's. He farmed 40 acres with his son Richard and a boy. Does anyone know the location of Bariff's Farm? Posted: 27/01/2008 15:51 by Heather Tomkns |
