Childhood Holidays
A Memory of Hessle.
My grandparents lived in a cottage fronting the River Humber where the Humber Bridge is now. My grandfather worked in the whitening mill near what was then called LITTLE SWITZERLAND. It is now, I believe, a country park. Their name was DIXON and they were my late mother's parents. We used to spend our holidays there every year, including the war years, and I can remember the light ship nearly opposite the cottage. We used to attend what was the United Methodist Church in Hessle village. I still have happy memories of these years and have walked many times along the foreshore towards Ferriby, seeing the small boats moored alongside.
