A Selection of Memories from Rugby
For many years now, we've been inviting visitors to our website to add their own memories to share their experiences of life as it was, prompted by the photographs in our archive. Here are some from Rugby
Sparked a Memory for you?
If this has sparked a memory, why not share it here?
My dad, Stanley Morgan Lloyd, was a pupil at this school.
And there he is...the policeman on point duty. We had a van that Charlie would deliver the bread in from our bakery in Regents St. I would sit on a wooden box in the passenger place next to the driver (there was no seat! One day, Charlie took his hands off the wheel and guided the van past the policeman with his knees.....very daring!
I was brought up in Rugby 1949 - 1970. My parents owned Tudor Bakeries at 3 Regent Street. At first we lived above the shop with the bake-house in Oxford Street. Then we moved to Bloxam Gardens off Bilton Road and converted the two floors above the shop into the bakery. I have many happy memories - one being the policeman on point duty just along from the clock tower. I'll have to look up the names of the roads at the junction but I can remember Sheep Street and High St being up the road.
Does any one remember the hairdressers on Regent Street? It was above Thortons sweet shop and on the same floor was an insurance company.
