Upton Very Early In Ww2
A Memory of Upton.
I was flicking through this site and was amazed to come across this photograph that features my mother Joan Sington (nee Phillips) along with her Spaniel 'Major'. The picture was taken before my mother had my elder brother Jonathan (in 1944) and looking carefully at her, I would assume it was taken before she was married in 1942. Major was given to her for her 21st birthday (June 1940). Prior to marriage, she lived with her parents at 8 Moreton Road and after the war she moved to 22 Oakland Drive where I was brought up. I remember so much about the old Upton - Metcalfs (bakery), Shonns (mended my bicycle) and Bridgers (the newsagents) as well as many others.
