Clwyd memories
School And Station
This was my first school after I was fostered out at Cil Llwyn Farm in the 50s. Also the old station is in the photo, from where we caught the steam train to the secondary school in Denbigh, "Caledfryn yn rhos".
I have lived in Luxor, Egypt for the past 4 years and am wrihting my autobiography of my childhood, great memories thanks to the photos.
Tony
PS I wonder if any of my old school chums are still about, I know Brian from Glan Clwyd and June from Acar were in 2001, as I paid them a visit.
The Van
The van outside the shop is a Morris and it belonged to Mr Edwards from Cil Llwyn as he was the only one with a new van in that area in 1955, the Vron Farm had a Morris Cowley van the same colour, because when we went to Bibby's Feed in Denbigh he kept saying 'I should of bought one but it was too much money'. The gate in the near hedge was the entrance to the vicarage and had a great Pippin apple tree in the garden that we would go scrumping, and if we let Mr Thomas the vicar catch us he would give us a bag full of the apples to take back home, not that we wanted them as Cil Llwyn had a huge orchard with lots of different trees.
Parry's Farm
Our parents would bring us to Bodfari each year for holidays. Robert and Richard were christened at St. Stephens and we would help Mr. Parry with driving cattle from the fields to the farm and for milking. Our Godmother lived at that time at 2 Church Terrace, Bodfari. It was a source of great joy to see Mr Parry (with his stick) and cattle with all the noise and the smells careering down the road towards the milking parlours. Happy days! He was always very welcoming to us and gave us great insight to the country life.
Grove Hall Memories
My grandmother bought the Grove Hall and ran it as a small country hotel. I remember having my birthday parties in the dinning room. As kids we also used to play with the swords and battle axes that were hanging on the walls. Luckily no one was seriously hurt. We also used to play in the attics, this is where I had a strange encounter with a duo of ghostly balls flying past my head. My parents moved the family to Caerwys when I was ten and I live in Vancouver Canada now but I have such wonderful memories of the Grove, the Waen and Bodfari.
Happy Happy Days.
I remember my swing in the front garden, and the Christmas tree was so tall we used to have to go on the second floor to put the fairy on top of the tree. Mum, every year, walking my brothers and myself up the hill at the back of the house to sit on a huge rock, and the daffodils growing everywhere, so many happy days.
Coming Home From China
Elias and Polly Owen came home from Shanghaiand lived at No 3 Elwy Viewand Iwas able to aquaint myself with all my St. Asaph family and see them for the first time, she only lived a few months and then Elias packed up and went off to Australia, but I remember it well, I had three families there, my mother was from the Palace Lodge, the Halleys in Central Buildings and the Owens from the Red Lion,so between them all family history became alive to a child from Brynymaen.
Looking For Rob
My name is Margaret Wynne. I am writing this on behalf of my sister Christine Jones (nee Parrington) who was a nurse at St Asaph Hospital in the 70's and there was a fellow in St Asaph named Robert (Rob) who was interested in my sister and she would like to contact him again. They used to see each other in pubs. All she can remember is that he was a council worker (refuse collector). Christine married Peter Jones and they lived in Rhuddlan. I would be grateful if anyone knows Rob or if Rob himself contact me.
