The Walk, Beccles: A memory of Beccles

The Walk, Beccles

A Memory of Beccles.

Yes, I remember this view very well. My father worked for the Eastern Electricity Board, which is pictured on the right of the picture. I was 15 at the time. I would like to know if the EEB is still there and does anyone else remember this picture around this time?

Whilst I was born a couple of years after this photograph was taken, I lived from then until the late 90’s in Beccles. Both myself and my late father worked for Eastern Electricity (in the offices as opposed to the shop pictured in The Walk). My father initially worked in the office when it was located at the top of Grove Road on Ingate Street, but was relocated to Oulton Broad when the Beccles office closed. I also worked in the Oulton Broad offices until their closure in the mid 90’s due to privatization, which is also approximately when I would guess the shop in The Walk closed.
