Reconnecting with our shared local history.
For many years now, we've been inviting visitors to our web site to add their own memories to share their experiences of life as it was when the photographs in our archive were taken. From brief one-liners explaining a little bit more about the image depicted, to great, in-depth accounts of a childhood when things were rather different than today (and everything inbetween!). We've had many contributors recognising themselves or loved ones in our photographs.

The hotel was situated on Brent Street, the North side of the A406 North Circular Road in Hendon. I had a friend whose mother was Scottish, and his father was German with the surname Krupp who was Head Waiter at the hotel; at the start of the Second World War he was interned to the Isle of Man for the duration of the war.
In 1943-44-45 I used to deliver early morning newspapers to the hotel.

We moved from Bexley Village to Barnehurst in 1971 when I was four years old. I grew up with my sister and two brothers on Eastleigh Road where all the children used to come out and play - we'd be out from dawn until dusk in the summer, building dens and camps over Barnehurst Golf Course and climbing trees over at Martens Grove Park, not to mention the long hot ...see more
Magical trip for a 14 year old working class boy attending Sinjuns Grammar School - a two week school journey to Lyme Regis. We had no car of our own, so bicycles and coach, bus and train journeys provided the backdrop to holidays. Holidays with mum and dad were always daytrips without overnights and cafes and picnics rather than restaurants and pubs. Walking was popular with many "are we there yet"s and "..just ...see more

I found your memory very interesting, as I used to come and stay with an elderly lady who lived on the top floor of these flats. Her name was Weston, and my Mother came to Devizes for my birth in Feb. 41 and we stayed with "Granny" Weston for six weeks before returning to Bristol. We often came to say with her in the years that followed and I have many happy memories of Devizes. I also remember an elderly sheepdog that I ...see more
Neat gardens of squares of box hedging kept very small and neat, both sides of the path from the road to shop, these squares full of striking displays of red and yellow flowers changing with the seasons, with wallflowers and tulips uppermost in my memory it was also highly scented, a large lilac and spreading cherry tree to one side and a sun bleached silver wooden fence along the road ...see more

I grew up in Dorking. I lived with my parents in Stane House right next to the St Martins Church. I married my first husband Michael Rowswell on the 30th March 1963. We had two boys Adrian and Julian. Unfortunately the marriage ended after 13 years together. During our married life we lived at Strood Green Betchworth. Michael still lives in the Dorking area but I remarried and moved to Kent with my boys. We had a ...see more
All of the above comes to mind and stands out above all other memories for me. A weekend trip to Yates with my eldest sister to buy popular chart singles, hop scotching on the tiles of Woolworth whilst mum shopped, drinking dreadful warm milk out of triangle paper cartons at school, and last but not least, splashing in the paddling pool and playing (mini-golf) put - in at the park. Happy days!
My father was born in Shropshire in 1919, his family name was Talbot changed by his father to Talbott because there were so many Talbot's and the mail was always sent to the wrong address. The family lived in or around Oakengates for many years until my father married and moved to Sheffield. I recall visiting the old family home at Christmas time each year. Proud of my heritage.

I used to work at the Primrose Valley holiday park back in the mid eighties. I remeber the house well as it was used as lodgings for the staff that didn't live locally. I think a elderly lady lived on the ground floor and the first and second floors had been turned into bedsits. I was only 16 at the time and worked the season until moving on to York
I was born in Easton Street in 1941 and remember seeing the air raid shelters in the street, that would be about 44/45/46 time. The street had a shop and a old stable like shed which sold veg and potatoes, the families all seemed to help each other out. My granddad was Dick Addison and the family lived at No 5 , he was a Sergeant in the Home Guard.
My Granddad in his wisdom decided to have ...see more

My memory for dates is suspect, so forgive any slight inaccuracy, however the important facts remain vivid and accurate memories.
Great friends of my family gave a party for their son David's birthday in 1962. He had unfortunately died as a result of a car crash earlier that year - so it was a very mixed emotion celebration. David was my very closest friend.
As well as my ...see more
I was born in Headless Cross and attended Headless Cross Infants and 1st Schools from 1943. In 1949 I passed the 11+_ exam and went on to the County High School until 1954.

My dad would take me every Sunday morning to the Lido. We had to practically crack the ice some days. We always had a hot Horlicks in Farmer Giles Cafe afterwards. It was just heaven being with my dad.
I used to go to The Roxy on Saturday morning. Roy Rogers etc. it was fantastic. Am I right in remembering taking jam jars and newspapers, so we could get in a bit cheaper? None of us behaved too well, there was plenty of yelling and jumping up and down.
My mum worked in Willey's wallpaper shop prior to the war and my dad worked in Morris's geocery shop. When dad joined up, mum took his job, so that dad would have a job to come back to. As mum became friendly with the Pie Shop owners, she would take me, when a child. I can remember the big steaming pie in the window. The owner bought me my forst teddy bear.
I went to the Alassio with a friend from school. We lied to our parents and said we were at the Christian Debating Society at Hanson Girls Grammar. I can remember the smell and the sound of the coffee machine. The cups were an orange coloured glass. We met two, much older boys/men there. It was all terribly exciting and risque and very sophisticated. I just loved listening to Helen Shapiro singing 'Walking Back to Happiness. !
We moved into Harrowdene Close in 1953 when they were first built. I can always remember the flats being well maintained and my dad had an allotment between the close and Sudbury Avenue. On a recent trip back down memory lane the allotment is now overgrown. I left there in 1972 when I got married. I went to Perrin Road Primary Scool and later Alperton High School.

A lady writing on here mentioned a couple of places in Battersea that bring back memories. First of all, she mentioned Meyrick Road. I never lived there, but my mum and dad did when my mum was carrying me. My mum and dad were Mr. and Mrs.Fomes, Alfred (Alf) and Olive. I believe they were evicted for being overcrowded! I believe they had my Grandfather who's name was Middleton and her two single sisters Sally, known as ...see more
My memories of Mexborough were playing by the canal down ferry boat lane of church street , canal barges would come along and we would open the old bridge and let them through and the boat man would throw us pennies for our help.

I was only 13 years old when this photo was taken but I remember several years later attending dances at the 'Atta' as we called it and then having to run like mad for the last bus home from the bus stop in the picture. Saturday mornings were always reserved for Saturday morning pictures at the cinema with the beautiful organ which rose up out of the stage and then as I got older the visit to Woolworths and the coffee shop close by. Such innocent days!

This was the home of my great grandfather Sir John Arrow Kempe whose daughter Cicely (my grandmother) was an artist and painted a beautiful watercolour of the main gates to the house, which I still have. Her son (my father) was brought up in Lyme Regis in a cottage on the sea front - we all spent many childhood holidays in Lyme Regis staying at the Bay Hotel.
I remember playing at the swings as pictured before they were recited in a position on the recreation ground. Peter

I was only there for two and a half years, but it is still very memorable.
I traveled to the school from London and there would be a separate carriage for the school. From Axminster station we rode a bus up to the school. We always sang the Vietnam song ("And it's 1,2,3 What're you fighting for") as it seemed like our last moments of freedom.
We also rode the bus in the summer term, once a week, to go ...see more

i lived at the top of sandy row in the 1950s and used to go up to the institute to roller skate from there as the building was on a slight incline. This was a beautiful old building I can't remember when it was demolished and replaced by the queens one but today it probably would be a listed building. A pity so many of these have gone.
There also was a wall at the front of it but it is not shown in the picture.

I lived in Culmington Road until I married in 1961 when I moved to Hillingdon. I went to Harvington School at Ealing Broadway from 1950 until 1956. I walked through Walpole Park every day to school, our house backed onto the park and I used to jump the back fence to save walking round the road to the park gates.
I remember this well, Christchurch, Ealing Broadway. I went here with school - Harvington - which was just off Ealing Common, we walked there down Springbridge Road past the swimming baths. I lived in Ealing from birth in 1939 until I married in 1961 - in Ealing Town Hall - and moved to Hillingdon. I was at Harvington from 1950 until 1956.
