Berkshire memories
South Lodge
My husband's family lived at South Lodge from 1935 until 1960 and he often wonders about when the lodge was built? There is/was a date of 1726 on the wall. We now live in Australia. If anyone knows or can tell us where we can find ou more, we would be very pleased. Ann
Little Tudor 1900's to Present
Little Tudor was the cottage that my grandmother resided in when she was a young girl. It is located on The Green in Holyport, Maidenhead. She and her brothers and sisters grew up here in the 1900s. I visited it last summer for the first time ... it looked the same as pictures my grandmother had of it when she returned for a visit in the 1960s. I would love to find out of the history of this lovely old cottage. It used to house three families, now it has been converted to a single family home. Just lovely! Wish I knew the date it was built and the history of it.
Watching The Boats in The Lock
Summer Sunday afternoons were often spent at Boulters Lock when I was a child. We would have a walk along the river and end up at the lock to sit and watch the boats go in and out.
There would be the people who thought they were the bee's knees in their blazers and straw boaters but who usually managed to make a mess of getting in and out of the lock. And the dogs that would jump off the boats into the lock causing pandemonium, fortunately they all seemed to get rescued OK either by their owners or by someone from the crowd that was always there sitting on the side of the lock.
Happy Memories
My mum Lois and I used to catch the blue bus from Dorney Reach and we would go to Maidenhead to visit the doctor or the dentist and then pop into the library where I would always pick a library book about animals.
Decanter Set
I own a four decanter set, enclosed in a 10.5 " high by 8" square box, of Amboyna wood, with brass handles and edging, possibly Georgian. Also, held by a brass clip in the top of box, is a 3.5 " glass with the name "Skindles" above a large "S" with a line drawn diagonally through it. Thanks to the internet, and your web-site, I now know, at least, where the glass came from.
I have bought many of your photos over the years, thank you for the pleasure they have given me, and my friends.
HENRY WILDER AND SON {BOATHOUSE]
I am the great-granddaughter of Henry Wilder. I think in this photo the boats are in front of the boathouse which belonged to my family. Henry died about 1910 so it passed on to the childrem, Henry, Charlotte and Elizabeth. Elizabeth was my grandmother.
Born And Bred
I was born in Maidenhead in 1939 and as soon as I could read I pestered my mum to take me to the library. I can't imagine how many books I would have read from the shelves of this lovely old building. At first I was not impressed with the new library but soon realised the advantages of more light and space. I have many happy memories of the great service I received as a child and adult.
I moved away 13 years ago. Now when I return there seems hardly antying left of the old town, which I loved. It's almost like going to another planet!
