Last Place Of Abode In The Uk

A Memory of Stockton-on-Tees.

My name is Judith Buchanan, formerly High, and we used to live at 20 Cambridge Rd, Thornaby. This house remains firmly entrenched in my earliest childhood memory. I was seven years old when our family left the country to migrate to Australia in 1963. Although our family stayed and made a life in Australia my mum always had divided loyalties and travelled back and forth from OZ to UK to visit her family. I visited in 1972 when I was 16 years old and have not been back since. I Would love to be able to come and visit again and retrace all those familiar places from my childhood. The house in Thornaby will always have a special place in my heart as it was a happy home until unemployment got the better of my parents and they decided to take the opportunity to improve their lives and that of their children. We are always grateful for the choices they made but will always consider Stockton and surrounds as our humble beginnings.
