The Top House Pub (Formerly Ordnance)
A Memory of Aveley.
My uncle, Bernard Montague Jay, visited The Top House every day of his adult life.
My family emigrated to New Zealand, in 1962, from Aveley. When my sister and I visited our uncle Bern, in the 1980s, his wife, Hilda Jay (nee Pavitt) said “Don’t get upset if he goes to `The Top House’ for a drink, while you’re here, because he goes there, daily, and has done for his entire life.”
Seeing his nieces, after twenty years, however, must have been special for him, as he stayed home that day!
Does anyone remember Bernard Jay, his wife, Hilda and The Top House / Ordnance?
