Going To School

A Memory of Tonbridge.

I started Bank Street school in 1955 ,my name was Angela Seale then.My teacher was Mrs Cooper ( she had been my mothers teacher as well ! ).The class room was right at the top of the building at the front,our delight was if the fire engine went out on a call and we were allowed to go to the window to watch .
At 7 I went round the corner to the Slade school and then onto The Hugh Christy at 11.
I have very happy memories of living at 52 Hadlow Road and going hop picking at a farm on Cannon Lane .My grandfather always went to watch Tonbridge town play football on a Saturday at the Angel ground ( no longer there) and come home with a pint of Prawns for tea .
In 1969 I got married to my husband Nigel at Tonbridge Church ,we go there every year on our anniversary and are coming up for our 52 ad. We have spent most of our married life living in Hampshire.
