My Life Ham
A Memory of Ham.
I lived in Ham Close prefabs, I moved to Ham from Richmond when I was 6yrs old and went to The Orchard School. I used to go through the hedge to watch polo - Prince Philip used to play there a lot then. The polo club was right next to the Orchard. Ham and Petersham was a great place to live - the pits and Ham pond - there used to be a big bonfire guy fawkes day by the pond. My Idol, Tommy Steele, moved into Montrose house opposite The Orchard School, we used to get apples from the trees in the orchard at school, and I call the Thames my river.
