Childhood Days

A Memory of Quarrington Hill.

I was born in Quarrington Hill in 1941 and left to train as a nurse aged 17. Being post war it was difficult, everything on rations and little money. My school was Cassop County Primary. Our days were spent on the village green, rose-hip picking, blackberry picking, catching tadpoles, going to Cassop bluebell wood, street games with all village families, just wonderful happy times. I now live in Jersey, Channel Islands, which is tranquil and lovely but I will never forget my happiness in our village, visiting all the woods and whinnies was magic, we would stay outdoors from dawn to dusk.
