Memory of Snodland: A memory of Snodland

Memory Of Snodland

A Memory of Snodland.

I remember the Brick and Terry. Ted worked with my dad in the paper mill. I remember Mr Dodd as well. He was my woodwork teacher and a very nice man, unlike a lot of the other teachers at that establishment. I was in the Bull pub a few months ago, on one of my rare visits to the UK. I met a lot of my old pals from my childhood. They are still there, ageing like fine wine. I have a lot of fond memories of Snodland. Sadly it's not the same now. Nowhere is. I would love to hear from anyone who grew up there in the 1950s and 1960s - unless I owe them money, that is!

Hi Mick Anderson, I lived in Snodland from 1942 when I was four years old until I joined the Paras at age seventeen and a half in 1956. I also remember Mr Dodd, he was our Woodwork teacher if I remember correctly. In those days the school was known only as Snodland County Secondary School.I lived only a half a mile from the back of the school in a one of a group of twelve cottages which are still there, you can see them on Google Earth. Have only today discovered your blog on Frith and hope that this reaches you, if so get in touch. I have many, many memories os Snodland. My email is rev.merryl@sapo.pt, I have lived in Portugal for the last 36years. Visited Snodland once only since leaving in 1956, that was in 1967. Ernie Reavill.
