If this has sparked a memory, why not share it here?

I lived in Smallfield during the war years, firstly in Broadbridge Cottages surrounded by barrage balloons and then New Road. My best friend was Sandra Steel, remember all the children in the road had chickenpox at the same time. We lived next to Mrs Terry (Eunice), we visited quite a lot after we moved back to London. Remember the garage at the end of the road and I think there was a Chapel. I don't suppose I would recognise it now.
My Dad was born in Smallfield and there was a common just outside where when I was a child walked over them with my Granddad and my uncle Dennis walked to the sewage farm and up the lane where I believed an elephant from the circus was buried I still have family living in Smallfield such happy times memories you hang onto c
I have very happy memories of doing part of my nurse training at Smallfields Hospital. I am trying to contact a health care assistant who worked there. Her name is Karen Williams ,she lived with her family on pig farm nearby. They made me so welcome in their home.
