Christmas Tree On The Green.

A Memory of Gillingham.

My family lived in Charing Road. I used to get so excited when the big Christmas tree arrived on the green. When the lights were switched on, we all used to sing Christmas carols around it. It was so big and beautiful to a small child!
I remember the Copper Kettle where we used to have a cream cake as a rare treat, Arnold`s the toy store where the toys were displayed in a large window and where my parents used to buy our fireworks. Spensley`s the Chemist; Mr.Spensley always seemed very severe and wore a white coat.
