Keppel Road
A Memory of East Ham.
I grew up in Kepple Road at no 22, opposite the little flats between 1962/83. I went to Altmore/Napier-Nelson/EHGS/Langdon schools. I recall the High Street and I worked on the seafood stall outside the Cock for Pete. I remember the Wimpey bar long before Mcdonalds, and Atkinsons the motor bike shop, and chucking water bombs from the roof of Halfords, and going to Central Park and Barking rec for games of football against anyone who was there.
I spent many evenings at the Shack at Brampton between 1973-75. I remember the old S1 route for 2p, East Ham swimming baths and the Granada (I remember seeing Rod Stewart there), and the Hammers cup celebrations in 1975 and 1980, following them all over the country, and drinking in the Denmark the Cock and the White Horse.
