The Ship And Shovel
A Memory of Dagenham.
I went to Monteagle elementary school in 1953, and my brother was a Park Modern Secondary. We lived on Ripple Road, and my mother and father had the Cosy Cafe. Dad also worked at Silcock and Colling.
I remember the pub up the road, which was the Ship and Shovel. We emigrated to America in 1954, but returned for a visit in 1992....and were happy to see the pub still there. Cosy Cafe was there too, but not the same. Our family name was Marr, and I was Christine, my brother was Barry.
