After The War In Eltham Park

A Memory of Eltham.

I can remember after the war I was 3 and my sister was 1, we lived with our mum and dad in a nissan hut with a corrugated roof in Eltham Park. My dad made it beautiful with bedrooms and a living room. We had a log stove in the middle to keep us warm. We were lucky to have somewhere to live after all the bombings. My sister and I went to Eltham Well Hall school I can remember going to sleep in the playground on camp beds in the playground every afternoon if the weather was ok, if not we had to have the camp beds in the hall. We also had to have a spoonful of malt every day. We moved to Orpington in 1949.
Does anyone else remember living in the park there were quite a few of us?
