My Tottenham
A Memory of Tottenham.
I was born at the mothers hospital too in 1961. Iv lived in Tottenham all my life, mum came from manor road off chalgrove road, dad come from Braemar Road(Kent rd to be precise just off there). Dad came out the RAF in 1948/9 and met mum at the Tottenham Royal. They married in 1953 at St. Pauls Church, Park Lane. As I said above, I was born in 1961, a only son. I went to St. Pauls school park lane that later joined with All Hallows school and moved to new premises on the corner of Worcester Avenue around 1972. Previous to that I went to Pembury nursery in Lansdowne Road and then Coleraine school infants for a while in Glendish Road. When I was born we lived with my mums parents in Manor Road. We moved to brand new flats in Waverley Road off Northumberland Grove in 1969, iv lived there ever since. Mum sadly died in 2002. I still have dad who is 88. I'm 56. I remember the home made sweet shop, seven sisters road and Ward Stores. Also Burgeses and North London Home Stores. Gordon Smith's the outfitters, the co-op on the corner of Lansdowne Road which moved in to Burgesses. The old Edmonton Green with the cinema on the hill. I could go on and on. Lee Harvey, mum was Doreen, dad is Rick.
