Nostalgic memories of Earlsfield's local history

Share your own memories of Earlsfield and read what others have said

For many years now, we've been inviting visitors to our web site to add their own memories to share their experiences of life as it was when the photographs in our archive were taken. From brief one-liners explaining a little bit more about the image depicted, to great, in-depth accounts of a childhood when things were rather different than today (and everything inbetween!). We've had many contributors recognising themselves or loved ones in our photographs.

Why not add your memory today and become part of our Memories Community to help others in the future delve back into their past.

I was born in 1940 in Godalming the reason my mum was pregnant with me my Dad sent my Mum and sister out of London, because of all the bombing. After I was born we came back to Earlsfield. When I was still quite young we were evacuated to Bristol. I lived in Bucharest Rd. Everything has changed so much. Remember the Watney horses. Playing in King George's Park. Playing on the common in the frying pan. Went to Swaffield Rd school. Then to the Elliott in Merton Rd. Finally left London 1960.
