My name is David Holland and I lived at no..5 Faringdon Road from 1939 to 1948 surrounded by fields. My paternal grandfather was William Holland a master decorator and my maternal grandfather , Clayton Chibnall ,a master plasterer and builder with Mr Wells building many houses in Bishopscote Road. We moved to a general grocers in Mansfield Road and my sister and I went to Maidenhall school from 1944 to 1950. I later worked for H C Janes, building contractors, at Stopsley Green.
