Falling In The Water

A Memory of Ealing.

In the 1950's I used to go here with my brothers. We tried sailing paper boats. The swans were quite aggressive if you got too close to their cygnets. One time I got too adventurous and stepped down the slope, slid on the algae and ended up drenched. I had to walk back to South Ealing Road squelching and feeling very sorry for myself.
I visited again in 2011 and was interested to see it much the same. The goldfish pond had gone.
Walpole Park was a huge part of my childhood. Janet Williams Sim

My brother and I used to sail our toy boats here. Also collected water fleas for our goldfish.
