Woolworths
I also remember Welling corner and those trolley buses. I lived in Welling from 1956 to 1965 and used to travel on the buses to Bexleyheath clocktower to go to Bexley Tech for girls in Townley Road. I also knew Woolworths quite well as I worked there on the sweet counter on Saturdays. I worked with two Maureens so if they see this please get in touch. I also remember Danson Park which is not far away and the Court School of Dancing. Does anyone else remember a youthclub called Wrotham Top Ten I think which was held in community centre in wrotham Road. Any other club members out there. Happy times.

RE: RE: Woolworths
My 2 brothers and I moved to Falconwood in 1935 when it was being built and I have written extensively about our boyhood in this area, including Welling, Eltham, Bexleyheath and Dartford. Don't remember Court School of Dancing; Embassy Ballrooms was my scene, plus Danson Park and Danson Youth Club, etc. Want to swap reminiscencies?
