Brook St. School

A Memory of Northumberland Heath.

I am Peter Harris , now 72, attended the school from 1950-58. we lived at 80 Birling Rd off Colliers lane. My siste Jean worked in Walkers newsagents on Bexley Rd, and married John Smith who with his brothers had the carpet shop near the post office. My older brother Ray, was manager at the other walkers newsagents on the estate above Stuart Mantle way. He started working for Mr Walker in the old converted bus that was parked on the green in the early 1950s. I too recall the teachers under Mr Pardy and played in the school under 15s rugby team from 53-58. Love to hear from anyone of that era. Cannot recall many names, only Mike Taylor who lived at the top of Avenue Road, and a Micheal Cowan. Next door to us in Birling Road was a family called Webber. Anyone remember us or them . Love to hear any memories from this area.
