Wargrave In 1955

A Memory of Wargrave.

We visited Wargrave in the summer of 1955 while my father was on sabbatical. We lived in Kellet Lodge for several weeks. The houses had names then. We did not have a refrigerator, just a pantry. We had fireplaces in every room.
A family had a large house on the Thames, where we went to Sunday mass. I played with the children on my street and learned to ride a bike. We watched Sooty the bear on TV and read Rupert stories. It was a great experience.
My brother and sister have been back to visit the area. I have not.
