Sparked a Memory for you?
If this has sparked a memory, why not share it here?
My father Nigel Holme was a Welsh Fusilier he met my mother Margaret Barrell in Honiton while stationed there at Heathfield Barracks.. It would lovely to know if anybody out there knew my father who sadly passed away in 1993.
I was about two years old when my family were the landlord and landlady of the Otter Inn, their names were William and Gwendoline Davis, my name is Jane. I went to school at the Marist Convent Ottery St Mary. I used to love watching the Army do river crossing in our orchard, we had so many happy years at the Otter Inn, too may to recount here.
From 1968-1969 I was posted to Honiton with the Royal Welch Fusiliers. I was an army cook aged just 19 at the time. I thought that it was a lovely place, posted to Hong Kong. I also remember an old American guy who ran a cafe on the High Street, he settled there after WW2. We used to drink at the Volunteer pub. My camp was Heathfield camp, I expect it has been built on now? I must pay a visit some time to see what it like now. Robert Fuller
