Our Lady's Convent, West Hill, Dartford, Kent: A memory of Dartford

Our Lady's Convent, West Hill, Dartford, Kent

A Memory of Dartford.

I was a boarder at the convent from the age of 6 to 12. My sister was 5. Our Aunt was a nun there (another aunt at the convent in Orpington). I remember Sister Cecelia most of all. I remember Penelope W, Antoinette M, Doula (from Spirdoula) S, Litsa S (her sister), Brenda M. My name is Dorothy, my sister's - Christine. I would love to hear from anyone with whom I can share memories.
