Royal Soldiers Daughters School Boarding Rosslyn Hill

A Memory of Hampstead.

I remember the day my mother left me there. It was raining, outside and in my heart The school had church-like double doors and as we went in it felt like the end of the world to me. I was only six years old. Rosslyn House has gone now, just memories. Anyone remember Miss Betts I wonder? And Miss Lloyd and her dachsund Bishop?

I was also there at that time, I hated the place. Water porridge and cleaning that horrible bobbly glass floor, it left I prints in your knees, tv once a week on a Saturday when you were allowed to choose a sweet from your tuck box. They even read your letters after you'd written to make sure you hadn't put anything bad in. My name is Tracey Turton now Annis
