Evacuees in Felsted in WW2: A memory of Felsted

Evacuees In Felsted In Ww2

A Memory of Felsted.

I am trying to learn if the evacuees from London (abt. 40-60 children) came to Felsted in 1939 and some stayed at The Hole Farm (previously recorded as Nunn's Farm) when it was two cottages (today one house). Did any stay at the Mill, which other house or Farm or did some children stay at The Glitch of Bacon Pub etc? I understand the children were educated at Crix Mission Hall by Miss Stephenson despite the lack of books and limited paper. Any stories will be most appreciated.

My brother and I were billeted in Nunns farm , now Hole farm, in 1939 for about two years, attended Crixl green chapel for some lessons, but had very few books. Have many memories of this time. I was then Doreen Ray, brother Bob. I remember the Roden boys billeted nearby. I am 92 now put have very clear memories of this time. The farm was two houses then and very run down.
