My Memories Of Salwarpe

A Memory of Salwarpe.

I lived in the first house opposite the church, before we moved to Australia in 1963. Next door lived Dr Adenbrook (I think), next to the church lived the Hoods in the now college, mum worked for a Brenda & Bryan Mullens who lived down the lane. Dad worked for the Davis's who have 3 sons (could be more). I remember Christopher (who drowned in an accident, he was in the Army), Roger and I think Tommy, they owned a farm. I went to Fernhill Heath and can remember being dropped off by bus at the end of the road and running so we could watch the steam train that went under the bridge every night. My parents names were Phyllis and Barry Potter. My name is Sheila, I have an older sister Marina and a younger brother named Martin. There is a lot more I remember, the canal, squirrels in the trees in winter, swans swimming on the canel behind the house...
