I was born in December 1962 in the mother and baby home in Hopedene. I would have been there last three weeks in December and first three weeks of January. It was one of the coldest winters on record. I'd love to hear from any adoptees that were there around that time. You never know. I found my birth mam eventually and knew her for about 15 years until she died.
Thanks for reading this. Thanks for sharing your lives.

I recall as a young boy the Saw Mill that existed neat Esh Winning Colliery. It was sited just prior to where the Railway siding crossed the road at the bottom of West Terrace. It used to cut pit props which were stacked on the opposite site of the road close to the colliery.
There is no indication today that this building existed. The railway is gone and so are the colliery terraces beyond where the railway ran, the only remaining building is one I always knew as the Women's Institute
In the Fifties my family used to live in Gipsy Road. Once a month, or so, I was taken to visit friends of my stepmother, Uncle Andy and Auntie Kit, who lived at the Bexleyheath end of Long Lane.

Hello, do you happen to remember the name of the Optician in Wembley Square near Bernard's sports shop?
I remember happy times at the Vine public house . It was renamed Crampy’s , due to Cecil Bowles ( the landlord ), being nicknamed Crampy. His little wife Marge used to work behind the bar also . We loved Marge . When Crampy was out of the way , she used to climb on a little stool and help herself to something alcohol of the shelf . She would put her finger to her mouth and say , Shush, don’t tell Father. I often wondered what she drank , and for whatever reason, he didn’t like her having it .
Before & during the Second World War my uncle was an electrical engineer & had a shop in Plashet Grove opposite Washington Road.

I grew up in Polzeath and my two best mates also lived in the area, sadly, both dead now. I remember in the summers the CSSM coming down and staying in New Polzeath, arranging lots of beach games in the afternoons but building a 'Pulpit" in the mornings for a service and using the pulpit for a tide fight when the tide came back in. I also remember, (more when I was a teenager), the Cadbury Boys coming down and camping ...see more

Stay Safe, Dave
I was born in Aust Farm in 1952 as it was my mother's home. It was on the road to Black Rock and my grandfather farmed the fields up to the river. I think the farm's name has changed now.

I remember watching steam trains, walking up to the river and playing at the water's edge- really surprising considering ...see more

I am not sure if this kind of opportunity attracts those who feel anger at a perceived or real unfairness, during their childhood years, and/or those who have a tendency to dwell on the negative but I'd really like to hear a broader range of experiences from amongst the many thousands who attended J Ston and Ston over the years.
Together with my twin I was there from 1958 to 1967, we ...see more

Does any body remember Fred the barber in Rose Mount. He was quite a character, and nobody went there unless they wanted a short back and sides, followed with a sizeable dollop of Brylcreme……therefore I can only remember going there once! I seem to remember he charged a shilling.

My memories of Collingwood began with my very first day there, in 1948, when I was l was left alone in a big empty hall, not knowing what to do! Eventually one of the teachers came in, saying crossly, " Why are you crying?" and not listening to the answer!

We came to a deserted Moresdale Hall in the 1980s and spent several years refurbishing it. Because it had 2 front doors and 2 staircases we were able to divide it and share it with my brother's family. It had had a chequered career, having been a boys' prep school, a mink farm and an unfinished hotel after its original owners had sold it earlier in the 20th century. Originally a Queen ...see more

You mention two boys from long ago who were my friends. I wonder if they are still alive. Ridley became head boy at Ravenscroft, if my memory serves me right, and I believe Hoddinott lived on a farm half way between Beckington and Trowbridge. My best friend was Ian Anderson, who lived near us in Trowbridge, and who even at that very young age was fascinated by ...see more

Great school I was there from 1965 to 1969.
We went into Lymington every Saturday to spend our pocket money.
There was a toy shop at the bottom of the High Street.
I think it was painted yellow at the front.
Spent lots of my pocket money in there.
A lovely town, I have revisited many times since.
Best wishes to everyone.
I'm trying to trace a place where my great, great grandfather and his parents. On his birth certificate it states that he was born in White's Buildings, St James, Shaftesbury. I'm struggling to find where this building was, if anyone can help I would really appreciate it
On Sunday last I was informed by a dear friend, that the Black Horse / Lavender Goose is no more. Sold apparently for development project. How sad that a building with such history is now nothing more than rubble. Another important building gone to be replaced by what?
I'd be so interested to learn what happens next..... Sue Hibbert

I spent spent six weeks there with Scarlet fever. Dinner always seemed to be greens, potatoes and mince , which I still love . The footsteps of the nurses along the wooden outside corridors meant those big injections were on the way. I was six years old at the time .. this would have been in 1957. I shared a ward with a girl from Kings Lynn, we were about the same age, her jokes and laughter as well as the amazing stories she used to regale me with kept me going.
I was there from 1951-1959. Some of the happiest days of my life. A day started with assembly with prayers said and some hymns sung. An awful cacophony of weedy and breaking voices. Various announcements were made including sporting achievements of the previous week. all the teachers and the Head were on a raised platform wearing their gowns. Some teachers wore their gowns in class.

My best friend Glenda Prior lived in the Gloster Arms with her mum and dad, this would have been in the 1970s. I have so many happy memories of our time together, practicing the "Greaser " dance in the snug ! So sad to hear that it has closed .Memories live on when the building is closed.

During the1950's, long before the introduction of Green Shield and other reward stamps, members of the Co-operative Society in the days before the Co-op as we know it today, earned tin coin cash money to the value of each purchase made. This could then be exchanged for real money at a later date. During this time the Society was a pillar of good for its members, with many extra benefits, ...see more
I’m researching the New Moon Café, The Street, Cobham. It was opposite The Little White Lion. It was owned by Bob and Lottie Bush during the war. My great-great grandmother Katherine Overington and my great-grandmother Ivy Cattermole lived and worked there in 1946 for some years, and apparently Ivy Cattermole took ownership. I’d love to know anything about the café or of my great-grandmother Ivy Cattermole. Many thanks, Sinéad

I'm not from East Ham but my Grandad served with the 141st HB which was formed in East Ham in 1915, they billeted in local schools. Any ideas of local names of schools? I think they used Clockhouse and Manor Farms, he used to mention a place called Mansfields on the Romford Rd which was also used by the 141st. Has anyone heard of it and what and where was it? Any info, however small is a massive stride for me. I'm sure there are some budding historians there that could help me

It was the early 1960's and I was a curious teenager beginning a voyage of discovery into the exciting world of pop music, rock and roll, coffee bars and clubs.

It was where I saw my very first live band, the exciting Jason Black and the Avengers, who had something of a ...see more
