Happy Days In St Albans Road, Late 40's And 50's.
A Memory of Dartford.
I lived at 90 East Hill just by the corner of St Albans. In St Albans lived all my little pals; Robert Ball, David Shaw, Peter Richardson, Frankie Taylor and Graham Wilson. We played in the street on our tricycles in the early years and did wheelies in front of the Tiger Pub until we headed home. During the days we would roam in fields off East Hill and Darenth Lane with catapults and bows and arrows. we would make camps, build little fires, fishing was the Darent or Ellinghams ponds and then scrumping apples on the way home. All of us were cub scouts and later army or sea cadets as we got older. We had airguns and sheaf knives for carving wood etc, the days seemed endless and during all those years we never heard of stabbings, muggings and violence. We grew up in a wonderful country and we all had respect, even though we got up to the odd prank!
