Aunt Jane's House
A Memory of Rhyd-y-foel.
The date is approximate. I was very young, about 6 at the time. I lived with my family in a village called Sandycroft, about 7 miles from Chester. We visited my great Aunt Jane who lived in one of the middle cottages in this picture. I remember a very small kitchen and her buttering an uncut loaf of bread liberally, then slicing it very finely for our tea. Afterwards we walked up the steep hill next to the row of cottages. I remember looking down on the cottages from the top of the hill. It seemed a mammoth walk for small legs. This is a very strong memory. My grandfather's family came from Llandulas nearby. These are my Welsh roots. I have lived in Nottingham now for 36 years. I remain in contact with one schoolfriend who lives in Colwyn Bay. I always feel very calm when I visit this neck of the woods compared with the bustle of the city.
