Lived In Hornsey Before Moving To New Zealand In 1952

A Memory of Hornsey.

I was born in 1944 and have a very clear memory of living at 37 Coleraine Road in Hornsey and, at the age of 7 1/2 emigrated with my parents, John and Ena Ridley to New Zealand. We lived with my father's parents and they continued living there until 1972 when my grandfather died. I have been back to visit once and hope to do so again in the not too distant future. I attended a local school but don't remember the name of it. My grandfather worked at the Bassett's Sweet Company and, ironically, my mother's maiden name was Bassett but no connection.
