East Chevington The Drift
A Memory of North Seaton.
I am the daughter of Doreen Smith, daughter of Frederick Steve Smith & Elizabeth Smith (The siblings consisted of Albert, Frederick, John, Violet, Nellie, Millie, Elizabeth or Lizzie who died of TB, Jim, Doreen). They lived at No.11 and then moved to No 5. Mum married Tommy Donaldson Beverley and moved to Gloucester when I was 6. My Grandfather Fred had brothers - Jimmy Smith, who used to live in the old miners cottages at the Drift, and Sid Smith. They used to drink at the Comrades. My fond memory of the past and all the people who lived at the Drift. My sister Elsie and I used to walk down to the sea and take a picnic with us on the beach sometimes and run up and down the dunes. Magical times, my sister and I used to play with the Mayburn children, Kathleen, Maureen & Pauline. I will never forget those times and I wish the village was still there. If only we could go back in time..
