My dad worked here as a part time gardener/odd job man.There was a Spanish chef working here in the late 50s who showed me how to pick up a Lobster properly he was badly pinched by the said Lobster and had his hand bandaged for over a week.It makes me feel happy to see it again as I was so happy and carefree then I wish I could go back in time but it is impossible.
I lived at 46, and went Hamilton Sec My mother was Lily Steers
It may seem strange, but this little hamlet of less than 200 people was the birthplace of a motorcycling legend, famed worldwide. The now empty Collington Works, Collington, Bromyard HR7 4NB was the home of Slater Laverda Ltd.
In the 1970's the Slater brothers, Richard & Roger, became the main importers of Italian motorcycles, made by Laverda. In close cooperation with the factory they ...see more

The milk that iced up in the morning at school and the newspaper I was required to tear up for toilet paper, who knows how the toilets didn’t block up especially in winter when the water in the bowl iced up.

Between July 1932 and November 1932 my Father, Mr F.G.Gaskin, worked for Mrs Judge of Langenhoe Hall, (Mr Hawkeswood) as an estate carpenter. He returned in 1933 to build a bungalow for Mr Baleman.

Opposite where the bus is located is a row of shops at the end of Glanville Drive. For the first part of my life from 1947 I lived at the far end of Glanville Drive. The large house in the background with the light-coloured flank wall is 'Dury Falls' a Grade II Listed Building. That is at the junction of Upminster Road and Wingletye Lane.
The Kings Head on the left of the photograph was one of the pubs I would regularly drink in when I was in my twenties. I remember it being 'tarted up' at one time with fake beams made of chicken wire covered in textured plaster painted dark brown. It was truly awful!
On the opposite side of the road from the pub in those days was a row of modern shops but as a child I remember there being a vacant site where a brewery had once stood and which was once used by a circus.
The church on the left hand side of the photograph was Hornchurch Baptist Church. I was, in the second half of the 1950s and the early 1960s, a member of the 6th Hornchurch Scout Group based at the church. A little further up North Street on the right was Westland Avenue where North Street Primary School was located. I attended the school from 1952 to 1958.
For the first part of my life from 1947 I lived in Glanville Drive which ran parallel to Wingletye Lane about 100 yards to the West of where the photograph was taken. The railings to the right of the photograph marked the boundary of the school field of Dury Falls Secondary School. In the background can be seen the bridge over the Romford-Upminster railway line.
I lived in Glanville Drive for the first part of my life from 1947. Out nearest post office was in Woodhall Parade, just over the railway bridge in Wingletye Lane, One thing that sticks in my mind is that the greengrocers kept a parrot in a cage in the shop. That would breach food hygiene and animal welfare standards nowadays. When I was old enough I used to buy beer and lager from the ...see more
Throughout the 1970s I worked as the Saturday Boy for Walter White , the greengrocers in Station Road. Everyone knew his shop because of the large wooden banana which hung in the front window .

The strip of land planted with bushes on ...see more
