Growing Up In Camberley
A Memory of Camberley.
I was born in 1939 in Camberley and lived there up to 1960. I loved the freedom as a child, we lived in Abbott’s lane on the frimley road and as a child had easy access to watchets woods and the Collage Grounds plus all of the common grounds surrounding the town at that time.
I attended the primary school that was between princess street and obelisk street, now demolished for the shopping center, 11 plus failure sent me to France Hill Secondary near the London road park. Great school and wonderful old house.
An apprenticeship at Weybridge and emigration to the USA ended my association with the town but it served me well and I could not ask for a better place to grow up in.
