Memories of The Dog And Partridge c1965, Yateley
My Mum And Dad
My father and mother Mary and Bill Nash met here in 1957. The bus used to stop outside the pub, my mum went in one day because a lady called Betty Harris said a nice looking man with curly hair was in there. They met and 2 years later married at Aldershot Register Office but returned later for their wedding reception, also at the dog. Recently I lost my father Bill but guess where we had his wake - also at the dog. This place holds very special memories to me as I drink there as well with my dog Molly. So this holds lots of memories for our family. This is in memory of my dad Arthur Edward Nash ie BILL 4th of July 1925 till 29th December 2009. RIP DAD. Xlove my mate Mary x

Read and share memories of Yateley and Hampshire inspired by Frith photos.
Yateley Grange
My grandfather William Haines lived in Yateley Grange Lodge and was the coachman and eventually chauffeur to the lady who lived in The Grange, a Miss Thoits. He was also gardener and handyman and, strange as it may seem nowadays, made the gas for both the Grange and the Lodge. I am now 82 and recently found the grave of my grandfather and grandmother in St Peter's churchyard in the village. My mother and father were also married in St Peter's Church. Robin Porter
POPE FAMILY
My farther, James Pope born in Yately, lived in Knellor Cottages with his brother Lionel and sister Lena and parents. His mother, my gran, maiden name Paice. Lived there with my parents for awhile but moved away. Returned often to visit my granmother. Sometimes just for the day or a few days. When staying would go to the old bakery first thing in morning and would walk back with a lovely warm fresh bake loaf. Also would go and play on the common. What a peaceful village it was, every thing changes.Have many more memories but would take too long. In the other cottages lived aunty Molly, uncle Lou, surname Head, Granny Wheeler in another and Mrs Fiddler in another. My dear gran lived well into her nineties. Some many happy memories.
