Rochford Sports Festival
A Memory of Rochford.
I did not live in Rochford, I lived in Hawkwell as a child/ teenager, but went to school there, first going to Rochford Primary then King Edmunds. One of my best friends who I often stayed over with at weekends lived at Malting Villas and her garden backed on to the Rec. For many years the Council would hold a sports festival around the district with the finals on the Rec (Rochford Park) and the Bobbin. We would go over the fields and watch the different sports and sideshows. I remember meeting Peggy Mount and Frankie Howard and getting their autographs. It was not till 2007 that I moved to Rochford and it feels like I have come home.
