Going For Walks And Swings In The Big Gardens: A memory of Guildford

Going For Walks And Swings In The Big Gardens

A Memory of Guildford.

I was at Pilgrims Wood, Sandy Lane, Guildford, Surrey, in years from 1959-1965, with, my two siblings.

I remember having to attend the church at Littleton, and I also remember having to go for walks in the woods. One day when I was older some other children and I were allowed to go on our own and we got lost and could not find the way back I often laugh at this.

I really loved the countryside out there and walking up Sandy Lane in pitch darkness.

My stay was not too bad at this home.

My relatives ran a tea room next to the river Wey in the back garden of their cottage. My uncle Reg Pennycate built a seat and a little bridge over the stream that came out from the hillside. Does anyone have a connection to the Pennycate family who had a daughter called Veronica, my second cousin?
