My Birth Place

A Memory of Heston.

1940-1953 I was born on Great West Road...my first memories are of all the bombs dropping during the war & I can remember most of the shops there & on Vicarage Farm Rd. I went to Springwell School, after coming back from evacuation 1944-1946, I remember Empire Day marching around the playground & saluting the flag! I went on to Heston Junior & Secondary School but left in 1953 to move to North Wales. My Family also belonged to "The Hounslow Welsh Society" which has very happy memories for me...my Father used to produce plays for the society & I used to appear in them. I have not been back to the area for about 35 yrs. no doubt it has all changed a great deal. Can anyone tell me where the 4th photo on the Heston series was taken...I can't visualise it?
