Nostalgic memories of Merriott's local history

Share your own memories of Merriott and read what others have said

For many years now, we've been inviting visitors to our web site to add their own memories to share their experiences of life as it was when the photographs in our archive were taken. From brief one-liners explaining a little bit more about the image depicted, to great, in-depth accounts of a childhood when things were rather different than today (and everything inbetween!). We've had many contributors recognising themselves or loved ones in our photographs.

Why not add your memory today and become part of our Memories Community to help others in the future delve back into their past.

My name was Julie Shaw, my Mum and Dad, Jack and Connie Shaw had the Post office when I was born there in 1961. I have one Sister Lois.
I was born in Merriott, Sept 1st  1960, in the bedroom of my parents' cottage opposite the nursery garden centre. My mum is June Elliott (Hooper family from Merriott) and my dad John Elliott (kingsbury Episcopi). I lived there  until moving to Worcester in 1963. My aunties and uncles still live in the village with some of my cousins. I live in Lincolnshire with my husband Allan, we have 2 daughters Abbe and Aprille.
