Memories of North Parade c1950, Sleaford
My Husband´s Home
My husband, Mike Kirton, lived in the second house on the right as a small boy with his parents and younger brother. A number of his family also lived on this stretch of the Parade. I moved to Sleaford in 1963, but lived further up the Parade at No 90. Even then it looked the same.
The Kirton Family Nth Pde
I remember the Kirton family in North Pde, Sue. Mrs Kirton was a dressmaker, I remember the eldest son was in the army and I was at school with Paul. We lost touch when we left the Parade in 1966 when I was 16, but I have happy memories of living there all through my childhood years. Thanks for sharing Sue, kind regards Maria Veall

I can't remember the exact year but my parents, Derek and Phyllis bought it after my nan moved across the river. It was the family home for many years for the Meikle family - my parents, myself and my two brothers and two sisters. Many a happy hour was spent in that house

My mother, my older sister and myself would visit in the school holidays and because we used to stay for a few days at a time, it was like a second home. Number 15 was on a corner and had a very large garden which included a fish pond and terrapin enclosure! Tommy the terrapin lived to be about fifty, I should think. Grandad had a workshop where he used to make clock cases, furniture and all sorts of thing with wood. Sadly, this was burned down in the late 1980s or early 1990s by arsonists. The house was very cold in the winter and we often used to admire the frost patterns on the window panes! I remember the Duthy (?) family who lived next door. They had a son, Walter about my age and whenever we were there he used to ask my sister and... Read more
