Walk To Longview Secondary Modern School

A Memory of Page Moss.

I am at present writing my memories of the Second World War. I lived in Filtom Road, Mossley Hill and I would walk to school over the River Alt and up past what we called Lord Derby's estate where there was a big gate house, then we walked along by the high wall of the estate to school. Over this wall which bordered the estate there were deer, a game keeper with a gun and the best conkers you could find. On the way home we would pass the internment camp and stop to talk to the prisoners. I remember the blackouts, the invasions and rationing, but I can't remember the name of the farm we passed. Can anyone help me with memories of this area. The farm could have been Jackson's Farm.
