Penge In The 1920s
A Memory of Penge.
The local midwife, Nell Horley, delivered many a Penge child, but she also kept a boarding house, where she would keep a large pot of soup on the cooker all day for the boarders. Nell was my 1/2 Aunt's grandmother. Nell delivered both my mother and father.
Nell had a borther nicknamed 'Spider', whose occupation was collecting rags to sell to trade. He would place all the rags across the garden after he had washed them.
