Sparked a Memory for you?

If this has sparked a memory, why not share it here?

Who remembers the duck pond by the War Memorial and the time it was filled in? I believe it was the early 1950s as I used to visit Lakenheath every summer holiday and one year it was gone. I remember the shock I felt. Also, who remembers Mr Rutterford's sweet shop on the corner of High Street and Mill Road, closed about that time too, ie early 1950s?
