Teenage Memories

A Memory of Chilham.

I moved to Chilham in 1960 from Weybridge in Surrey when my parents bought Chilham Filling Station which was next door to Mr.& Mrs Brunger, the local ladder maker. I remember walking up the high street on many occasions to get shopping for my mum from the grocers shop in the square and the butchers in Taylor's hill. The move for me was a bit of a culture shock moving from a large urbanised area to a very quiet country village. We lived there for 3-4 years before moving again in !963-1964 to Minster in Thanet.
