The Bakery: A memory of Meopham

The Bakery

A Memory of Meopham.

My Grandad was Ken Derham, the village baker. I lived at the bakery for a short time when I was aged about 9. I remember him making the bread and being allowed to help him fill the donuts with jam. I can still smell how wonderful the bakery was and to this day the smell of bread baking brings it all back.

Hi Simon, I'm Paul Muckleston & was born in Meopham, My Uncle used to work for your granddad in the shop, and became a master baker himself and ran his own bakery in Hern Bay. His name was Stan Wooding, and he made the most amazing cream doghnuts, dark brown & crispy outside.
