School times
I used to attend the local Ogbourne St. George school where Mr. Bernard Crooks was the headmaster and Mrs. Twelftree was my teacher. There used to be a kitchen attached to the school but that has since been changed to a library. Posted: 27/03/2007 11:10 by Michelle Maddock |

 Marlborough, Polly Tea Rooms c1955 (ref: M34103) |
Year: 1943
Wartime Marlborough A memory of Marlborough, Wiltshire Sent out of London during the Blitz with my mother, grandmother and sister, a visit to the Polly Tea Rooms was for special occasions only. We loved it when the parents of the boys from Marlborough School came to visit and brought their sons to Polly's for tea (even though we were only 5 or 6!). Happily, the tea rooms are still there, whilst the Merlin on the other side and at the other end of the High Street has disappeared. Posted: 21/04/2008 22:18 by Jill Edison |

 Marlborough, Treacle Bolley 1907 (ref: 57849) |
Year: 1943
Wartime Marlborough A memory of Marlborough, Wiltshire Evacuated with my sister and mother, one of our favourite walks was to Treacle Bolley where we collected rose hips which were then sent away to be made into a source of vitamin C and distributed to those who needed it. On a visit to Marlborough (from London) a few years ago, I was unable to find Treacle Bolley nor anyone who had ever heard of it. Is there anyone out there who knows this lovely spot?
