44 Wiltshire Road
A Memory of Brixton.
I was born at 44 Wiltshire Road, in the basement flat in June 1955, and lived there until I was 6. I remember listening to gospel singing coming from St. Johns church and the colourful weddings that happened there. I remember a car accident outside our house and one car rolled over and over, and landed well into the front garden. My mum was called to court as a witness, and I tagged along, a nice policeman looked after me and let me play with his handcuffs. My dad was an amateur wrestler, and I think went to a Longsdale club in Streatham? Mick McManus and Johnny Peters used to come round for supper sometimes with other wrestlers. All those old Victorian houses aren't there anymore. Happy early memories.
