St James Youth Club
A Memory of Purley.
I grew up in Kenley Oak Cottages, Little Roke Road. I went to Roke Primary and Senior School. I was also a member of the St James youth club which met on Wednesday evenings and once a month had a Saturday night event. I remember Grimes the bakers (we could get yesterday's cakes for a couple of pennys, and Marge's sweet shop where my grandma would buy me a candy stick for 1 penny. Long hot summers....! We used to go across the railway bridge at Little Roke, there is a green the other side which used to be woods where we used to play after school and make camps. I was a member of the Methodist Church Girls Life Brigade
