Grandparents House

A Memory of Corby.

My grandparents and family, including my father, used to live in Kelvin Grove. My dad, Joseph Gamble, married my mum Margaret Govern and moved around the corner to James Watt Avenue where I was born. I think your grandparents, the Robertsons lived next door for many a year, and was known as Granny Roberts before moving. I also remember queing up to get into the picture house - The Odeon.
My grandad and grandmother moved to the top of Occupation Road and ran the Mobil Garage, with the big white horse, before it got demolished, along with their lovely house and flats were built were they had stood.
