The Square c1960

I remember helping my father Alan to herd the sheep from Marsh House Farm to West Hyde Farm. When we got to Tillingham Square we rested them and  the villagers used to come out to see us. I used to sing in the church choir and I used to attend the primary school, I was in Miss Rodda's class. When the Bradwell power station was being built, after school I used to cycle to Bradwell to see the large heat exchanges being lifted on to low loaders to be transported to the station.
