Rosewood Way

A Memory of Farnham Common.

I was born in 1965 and lived in Rosewood Way, Farnham Common. My father tells me that the family cat would wait on this corner each evening for my father to return from work, spotting his car - the cat would bound home to greet him.

Even in the 60's my father would complain about the traffic through Farnham Common. Some of my first words on this junction, when getting a lift to play-school, were "buddy traffic"!

There was a petrol filling station opposite the parade, I remember person who filled the car would scare us as he had a finger missing!
