My Wedding
I was married at St. Mary's at West Horsley on 4th November 1961 to Colin Duddridge. Sadly he passed away in April 2008. I now live in Canada and have done for nearly 40 years. I was in the choir for 9 years and my father Douglas Blake was a sidesman.

Round Tree Farm West Horsley
I can't remember a great deal of my early years living at Round Tree Farm, perhaps you might know me? A red very curly haired tom boy (I think) with a new baby brother. I did attend the local school for a short period. My father worked on the farm for 4 years during the war. I do remember the big black barn in front,(almost)of our cottage which many children played in. Also, picking armfuls of Bluebells up the road. Long Reach? Walking to East Horsley to catch a train, shopping at Forest Stores near the school in W. Horsley. Do I also remember right, when the war finished they held a big Bonfire near the Village Hall to celebrate. Many a happy day was spent in West Horsley . I was then Pam Thompson.
West Horsley (previously Under Ockham)
The Barley Mow, we went up there for my sister's hen night, and ended up at the caravan park down Green Lane. I have just visited it, well last year actually, and didn't realize it was such a lovely park, I just remember it being very dark and cold. It is very well run caravan site, with fishing, and from all accounts was a school, they still have a huge lake, with a walkway in the middle which was the schools and a hall with the date on, which I can't remember at the moment, it is well worth a visit, and if we had our motorhome, or our caravan, now we would definately go and stay there!
