Milk Delivery
A Memory of Hornchurch.
I lived in Minster Way from 1947-58 in one of the bungalows in this photo - but there were trees along the front of the house by this time. I remember milk being delivered by horse and cart - the milkman would go quickly up and down the front paths to put the milk bottles at the door and call out to the horse when he wanted it to move along. My father used to go out in the street with a shovel to pick up the droppings for our garden.

I have walked up and down Minster Way hundreds of times when I was still living with my parents and travelled to jobs in London from Upminster Bridge station. The long uphill walk was a slog on hot days after after a hard day at work.
