Pub

My gran owned the pub at Blackheath which was called the Forest King, it was on the edge of the cricket pitch. There was also another pub called the Volunteer on the next road. Does anybody remember them?

Family shop

My Nan and Grandad often took myself and my twin sister to visit his mother and brother to BlackHeat, Lamb Lane, to their Local Shop. Wow, sweets galore! Lovely smelling cooked meats, it was great! I always remember the walk from the statino near some playing fields, then walking into the shop and seeing my Great Grandmother standing there with her big smile and her pinny. I don't think it's there anymore. My Great Grandmother lived on to be 104 - must have been all that lovely food! We visited in 1959/1969. - Mag.

Bramley Grange

My grandfather was the Head Gardener at the Grange and my father was his Under Gardener prior to the Second World War. I am not sure of the years but remember visiting my grandparents around 1950. I have a vague memory that they lived opposite a Boys Home in the village. In later years my grandmother lived in a cul de sac of bungalows just outside the village. Both my grandfather and my father were called John but my father was better known as Jack. Does anyone have memories of my family?
