Bidford-On-Avon, the River and Bell Court Cottage 1950 (ref: B91021)
Year: 1941 Once my home
A memory of Bidford-On-Avon, Warwickshire

I lived here for two years in 1941/42.  My father rented it from Mrs Switzer who owned Bell Court.  I was ten years old and together with my parents was escaping the Birmingham bombing.  I used to fish from that very unstable veranda. We later rented a home on Grange Road in Bidford.

Claverdon, Malt House Cottage c1960 (ref: C253009)
Year: 1964 I lived here
A memory of Claverdon, Warwickshire

I lived at The Malt House, Claverdon in the early mid 1960s. It was owned at the time by Mr Jefferson who lived in a lovely new bungalow a little further away. I loved this house even if it was a bit unusual to live in. I went to school in Claverdon and Miss Lewthwaite was my teacher she was really nice. Does anyone else remember this place?
I don't think the Malt House has changed that much, it still looks lovely in the modern photos I have seen of it. I bet the floors still slope upstairs.
In the barn at the end it had a "Copper" where my mum boiled the whites on washing day and she had to cross the road to hang her washing in a field on the corner.

  Year: 1981 Pram race
A memory of Henley-In-Arden, Warwickshire

I was 10 years old when I entered the pram race. Myself and two other neighbours entered as a junior team. I was dressed up as a baby and the two other lads were dressed as mom and dad. The race went round Wooton Wawen. It started at the top of the High Street in Henley, down to the traffic lights which we had to turn right, then left up Mayswood Road. At the end of Mayswood Road we turned left on to the Stratford Road back into Henley and up the high street. We had to take it in turns to be in the pram which was difficult to get in and out of when running. The crowds up the High Street pelted us with flour and water bombs. We came second in our group. Unfortunately I have no photos of this event - does anybody have any?

  Year: 1973 My Family
A memory of Huntworth, Somerset

The Bull family, we used to live at 4 Duffus Hill. We used to go to the stud where my father worked, back in 1974. We used to go to the village hall for Brownies. We went to the school. We went to Sunday School down Middle Town Lane. We have got loads of memories of Moreton Morrell.
