Draycott Police House

A Memory of Pear Tree.

I was born in the Police House, my parents had moved into it from new. My older brother David, and my Dad (Constable Hind) made a garden swing for me out of railway sleepers. I can remember going to Sunday school and having to kneel on our little chairs to pray. I think the policeman next door was called Dethick. I think the station was there too, as my Mother hated having burglars in the house and having to offer them tea! There was a kind lady down the road whose name was Tribenzee, or Mrs Trib. Her son was called Karl, or Cawl as I used to say.
Dad had lots of fascinating police stories to tell. He loved his job. We moved when I was about four,1963/4 Does anyone remember?
