Lives In Cheriton High Street

A Memory of Cheriton.

From early 1920's until the late 1970's my husband's family occupied homes in Cheriton. At first in Whitby Road, then for many years at 129 Cheriton High Street, next to their good friends the Priestleys.

Names associated with them were also the Horton Family, the Nokes and the Guigan/Carsons.

Hubby, now sadly gone, used to fondly recall that his parents drank rarely but on fine summer Saturday afternoons would stroll, hand-in-hand through the years, to the high street public house, for 'a half' in the gardens.
All 'the boys' were in the services and came and went as necessary.

Their parents though remained, taking in youngsters from time-totime during the bombing and providing the solid background these building suggest to be the nature of the locals.
