Flaxley Road
A Memory of Stechford.
I was born in 1950 and lived at 151 Flaxley Road until 1958. My father was William Yardley, he was a manager at the Levis works in Station Road. He died in 1953, and in 1958 my mother was re-married to a local retiring policeman, 'Sam' Billham. We then moved to Norwich, where my step father came from originally. I was sent to a boarding school in Dorset at the age of four, so can only remember very few things about my time at Flaxley Road. I do remember going to see a film at the Atlas cinema and a couple of names from the locality, Anita Green - Old Farm Road and a lad called Stephen who lived a few doors away from me. I have been back a couple of times to see where I lived. There is now a locked gate across the entrance to the open alley that I used to ride my three wheeled bike up and down.
