A Selection of Memories from Laceby
For many years now, we've been inviting visitors to our website to add their own memories to share their experiences of life as it was, prompted by the photographs in our archive. Here are some from Laceby
Sparked a Memory for you?
If this has sparked a memory, why not share it here?
This estate including Stanford Close, going off to the right, was built by the Barwood Brothers, builders of Laceby between 1962 and 1960. We were the first owners of the left-hand of semi detached bungalows seen on the right of the photograph. I built the concrete garage shown on left of the dwelling. This house was completed May 1963. Moved on in 1973.
My grandparents also lived in this bungalow and I too have cherished memories. My grandpaernts where in it till around 1981 when sadly my granddad died. My grand parents names were Edith and Arthur Carter. My dad was born in this bungalow on May 7th 1945 just as the news of the surrender of the Germans came, my nanna always said she missed out on the party because my dad came along hehe. My aunt and uncle also lived here Gordon and Jean Carter.
My grandparents, Reginald and Elizabeth Smith, lived at #3 Old Chapel Lane, the second house from the right in the photo. What a shock to see it! It brings back wonderful memories of them and my childhood.
