Etruria Street
A Memory of Battersea.
Hi my name is John Cooper. I was born in 1948 in Etruria street in Battersea. My parents names are Henry ( Harry ) am Jane ( new Shipcott ). I also had a brother, Dennis and a sister Jean. We lived there until 1953 when we moved to Carshalton in Surrey. I have almost nil memories of those times, so I would like to link up to anybody who lived in Etruria street or surrounding area. I believe that this whole area was pulled down to make way for some flats. My dad worked at Battersea power station until his passing in 1974, but I am told prior to this he was a milkman and possibly a policeman. I also remember my mother saying she worked at Prices Candles and something to do with buttons???.
I also had an aunt and uncle who had a pub nearby, Lil and Harry , but don't know it's name.
Thanks again for any help you can give.
