Starting At The Grammar School
A Memory of Beckenham.
I passed my scholarship exams and when I was nearly 11, I started at the Beckenham County Grammar School as it was then called, in Copers Cope road. However as there were too many of us the first years classes were held at the Cricket Pavilion in Cater park?
I lived just inside the 5 mile limit from The School at Eden Park, which prevented my parents getting help with travel costs - so I was given a bike and everyday did the cycle ride there and back! the school moved in 1959 to Park Langley.
