Velmore Camp
A Memory of Chandler's Ford.
I was born at Velmore Camp in 1954 and lived there with my parents, Fred and Margaret Eldridge, and my sister Lynette. A year later we moved to Derby Road, Eastleigh. Have tried unsuccessfully to find information about Velmore and would appreciate anything anyone might know please.

I lived in Belmont Road near the camp. I remember it as a war time location for American troops and afterwards for families until the new homes could be built. Many happy hours spent by Monks Brook and the nearby fields and copses. Good memories.
I can remember also so many families and still recall a lot of their names ,such wonderful times , other times have become foggy over the years but my recollection of my time in Velmore is as sharp now as it was back in the day
