Fish And Chips
A Memory of Croydon.
l was born at Westfield Rd. My dad's brother and his wife owned the fish and chip shop on Pitlake Bridge (which is now renamed Jubilee Bridge). There was also a paper shop called Weanholes, it belonged to an old woman, she was about 80, no teeth, always looked as if she was chewing her gums ah ah. l went to Croydon Parish Church School. And Sunday School at St Edmond's which was at the bottom of our road next to the park. We would all gather there to play hop scotch untill the street lights came on or we heard our mums calling us in. l remember the slaughterhouse and yes you did have to run inside your house if one got loose. Does anybody remember the sheep that was killed and they fould a baby that was a few days away from being born and the men saved its life and bottle fed it and would walk it about on a collar and lead for many years. Trudie O'Hara.
