Living In Curry Mallet
A Memory of Curry Mallet.
I was born in Curry Mallet with my two sisters, Pat and Margaret. We were all born in Yew Tree Cottage. I went to Curry Mallet school. My grandad worked for Glides Farm until he passed away, then we moved to Taunton. I used to go to the Bell Inn a lot, it was then run by Tommy Middelton, he had a son named Roger, I always remember him as he gave me a tennis racket. I was only 4 and a half when I left Curry Mallet but I remember walking down the lane to school over the fields, past the old sheep dip. Another memory of my time in Curry Mallet was a very big yew tree in our garden, wow, it used to scare me, and the thing I remember most is the churchyard where my grandad is, his name was Jimmy Stodgell, I am not too sure where abouts in the churchyard he is but I come back a lot to visit as my sister still lives in Curry Mallet. If I could, I would love to move back to the village and relive all the good times. My name was not Coles when I lived there, it was Foulkes. If anyone remembers me it would be great to hear from you. All this as I remember was around 1954/59.
