John's Past
A Memory of Fleggburgh.
I was born in Burgh in 1934 in The Loke (now St Margaret's Way). There were only 2 blocks of council houses there at the time. I attended the local school until 1945 when I transferred to Yarmouth Grammar. After National Service my parents moved to Caister and I to Scotland, later emigrating to Australia. My memory of the area at that time is still vivid. I have visited the area many times since emigrating and enjoy strolling through the village. The village has changed a lot north of the main road. I suppose it's called progress. I also recall attending whist drives in the Reading Room and carol singing to raise funds to build the village hall.
