The old rest hotel in Kenton always reminds me of the terrific motor cycle accident my uncle Desmond Brennan had coming away from the pub, subsequently had is leg amputated and went into a decline,.
My family moved into the kenton area some sixty years ago, i lived there until i moved to Hayes when i got married Twenty years later and didnt visit until ten years ago when i went by bus to the Hyde ( Edgeware road) i was both shocked, saddened and dismayed by how seedy looking the whole kenton/kingsbury corridor is now and how quickly the whole area has gone downhill in the short time since i moved away.
I was born in 1945 and lived in Kenton between 1948 and 1968.
I have lots of memories of Uxendon Manor primary school and Claremont County secondary school and remember quite a few of the teachers.
Gooseacre Parade were our nearest shops and memories of them are still quite clear.
