The Night The Roof Fell In!
A Memory of Petts Wood.
I lived in Eastbury Road from 1935 with my parents & brothers until 1960 when I married & moved to Berkshire. In March 1944 our house along with the one next door were totally destroyed by enemy action bringing the roof down to ground level. Luckily my mother, who was pregnant at the time, my brother & myself were under a cast iron/steel Morrison indoor shelter & my father just made it under the shelter as the bombs exploded. My brother suffered a cut finger. My mother was taken to hospital for a check up & my second brother was born in June 1944 & all was well.
If anyone has a photo of 16/18 Eastbury Road as demolished in 1944 I would be pleased to hear from them.
