Nostalgic memories of Honington's local history

Share your own memories of Honington 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 lived at 112 Woodside View. Happy memories of the village school. Remember blackberry picking in Blackberry woods, also Plum Lane. I also remember walking past somewhere at night when we had been to the cinema and being scared of bats!
I was stationed at Honington and was on the station guard of honour. I remember the visit of Kruschev during the Cold War. Being in air traffic control, the tower approach windows were covered. Kruschev was only permitted on the local balcony. Have tried to find photos and write-ups without success.
I served as an SAC general mechanic in the general workshops for most of my NATIONAL SERVICE.
