Walks In The Park: A memory of Ealing

Walks In The Park

A Memory of Ealing.

I was born in Ealing in 1955, my parents lived in Raymond Avenue my Mum worked at the Town Hall.Later she worked at the White City dog track.
I remember going to a big park,Gunnersbury in a huge old pram and I clearly recall the time I was lost on Ealing Broadway,I was soon returned to my poor Mum by a policeman!

I spent so much of my childhood playing in Gunnersbury Park. Football, cycling, conkering! Always seemed to be warm and sunny. I park my car near the park when I travel up from the coast to watch Brentford play. It doesn't seem to be the quiet, carefree and beautiful place it was then. Indeed, I wouldn't let my kids go there unaccompanied but then the world has changed!
