Hounslow long term resident: A memory of Hounslow

Hounslow Long Term Resident

A Memory of Hounslow.

I moved to Litchfield Road, Hounslow in 1952, the houses were new. I moved away to Hanworth in 1967. I went to Beavers infants & junior school them Woodfield secondary modern school. I loved living in Hounslow and have many happy memories. My sisters and I often walked to Hounslow West for fresh bread for the weekend in Giltrows. Worked in the sweetshop next to the cinema opposite Hounslow West station, which was the end of the Piccadilly line in those days.

Hi David, it's a small world isn't it. Although I don't remember you or Jacqui I also worked in the sweet shop next to the Odeon at Hounslow West! I worked for an elderly Jewish couple who were lovely. That must have been 1964 and probably retired soon after. I met my husband Malcolm Bell there as he worked in the shoe repairers next door. Nice to hear from you. Sue
