At the top of this short road was a village shop, we would get lollies in there. Across the road to "the Hollow" [ now completely overgrown] and then on to Limes Close to see friends.
Boris Karloffs house at the bottom of this view.
Stories of ghost sightings had a huge appeal to us kids then but in the 50+ years I have been along that area I'm still waiting.
This view has changed little apart from the parked ...see more

Hi

The other day I came across an old box at a car boot sale in Denmark with the letters Waterloo Chapel Liverpool across it, and I knew I just had to buy it.

I remember being employed by Cook's for the Tower Camp back in the mid 70's. I had been on holiday there the year before.
I was employed as a waiter in the main dining room. The staff in there was a rag tag bunch from all over the country. Danny had joined us from the cruise ships and liked a flutter on the horses. Don was a Scottish lad and was a trained tailor. He drove a Fiat 500 and I enjoyed many rides ...see more
We moved to Pevensey Bay when I was 4. In the Summer, the three of us would go down to the beach, early in the morning, while our parents were still asleep, and dig in the sand, and play. This was our childhood. We didn't know then how lucky we were, or how carefree our life was, but now, in later years, I have come to realise that few people knew such freedom as us. Certainly, my boys have had as much as I ...see more
My Mum was born in Lawler Street one of 12 children. My Dad was from Beechwood Road and they lived there after they married until 1948 when they moved to the new housing estate Cumpsty Road. My grandparents Joseph and Margaret Parker had moved from Lawler Street to Moss Lane then Daley Road.
As a child I can remember cycling from Oxford Road, Waterloo to Blundellsands. I then went via what was I think Dibbs Lane leading to Little Crosby where I can remember watching the fields being ploughed using Shire horses. From Little Crosby Village I would cycle along Moss Lane & eventually past the pub called The Pheasant but known to my parents as "Happy's" which I believe was the ...see more
Hi, you have brought so many memories of when I lived in Corwen in 1958 and went to the school on the hill. I remember Mr Roberts teaching and because I came to live in Wales from England and go to school there I was not allowed to learn Welsh so I had to sit in the class room and it would be in Welsh and I would have to sit there and do my English work from books by myself. I had an older brother and he did the same as me ...see more
I was watching the Ride London-Surrey Classic Road Cycle Road Race today and the pelaton rode up Box Hill bringing back a particular memory, so I decided to look up The Upper Farm Swimming Pool on-line and immediately saw this photograph.

We use to stay at my Aunts in King Edward Road Birchington. My Dad lived in Dunstan Ave Westgate as a boy. Most of the family were in the local brass band and so it was our duty to go and listen on a Sunday afternoon. We had a visit to the Quex park and of coarse to the local cream parlour which served delicious ice creams.

My mum and dad used to own the pub, my mum sadly passed away in January 1981 and my dad moved out around April 1981. I have many fond memories of customers who used to use the pub and was really surprised that the pub was demolished as it was a listed building.
I worked in Salford Custom House from 1961 to 1963 as a Departmental Clerical Officer (DCO). This was the start of my career in HM Customs & Excise and I have happy and very clear memories of walking to work down Trafford Road, over the iron bridge down to the Custom House, signing in the attendence book by 8.45 each day and sitting in the Long Room checking and stamping shipping documents. I met my wife in that room ...see more

The local girls were my young ...see more
I had a Saturday job at the top end of this picture at a hardware shop Miller Morris and Brooker. Across from them was toy shop and a mens fashion shop. I think next door to MMB was a cafe.
Vividly remember my paper round from Fords Newsagents Along the Brighton Road then up Dean lane in1958/59 Cold mornings made a warmish area in the doorway with the papers which were delivered at 4,30 am,It was hardwork at that age A big round, Then back to Clover Hill before going to Woodcote School on the 414 bus.Everything has changed now the M25 is open onto A23

They were the Stewarts and the Whyte's . A fantastic family to grow up in they have so much history . My dad stayed in Fishie till he married and moved to Macduff ( now back but in Mintlaw) He told us of all the things his brothers and cousins got up to and believe me they had some adventures lol. I went for holidays with my dads cousin Tina Mckay (Stewart) ...see more
I can't remember where we performed (somebody help? I believe it was off the Dunsfold Green), but I was a member of a four piece dance band that in 1940-42 + came every Sat night from Witley to provide dance music for the airforce folk at Dunsfold Air base (remember those Mitchell's) and the local girls. The leader was Mrs Denyer on the piano, her husband (name?) played drums, I was a ...see more
I learnt to swim in this pool late 1950s. It was always massively popular during the hot summers we always seemed to have then, and I was sad to see it close - there are so few open air lido type pools around these days. I remember jumping off the high diving board 7metres and the fear of making the jump. Public swimming pools don't seem to have high diving boards any more; the safety reasons for this are understandable, but how do youngsters become Tom Daleys without them?
I lived at 45 Waren road orpington with mum dad and brother tony We have very happy memories of living there moving away when i was about 15 -16. Mum and Dad(Rene & Charles ) ran the dance club for ballroom dancing and were in the Frank Spencer formation team. I attended Sidcup Technical School with my friend Frances. I now live in Berkshire, married with two sons and 5 grandchildren, but I often think back to ...see more
I remember canoeing on this pond in my younger days,I used to get the bus along the front.
We moved from Shoeburyness in 1958 to go up north to South Shields and it was about 5 top coats difference in temperature!! brr, brr! I can still imagine kneeling in the canoe and paddling for ages.
We used to live in Vincent Crescent number 11,and Mam,Dad,brothers Peter and Barry (Barry now departed) have been away a long ...see more
The first thing I remember after turning left over Kew Bridge was a pub, and at the end of that pub was a jellied eel stall, My Mum and Dad used to stop there and get a pint of whelks covered in pepper and chilly vinegar, then we would walk home to Kenley road. Dad would give me the biggest Whelk out of the bag and it would last me the whole way home. Every weekend we did that after spending a few hours over ...see more
A school chum & I came here to see Expresso Bongo, starring local lad Harry Webb, aka Cliff Richard, in about 1961. I was almost 16 but still felt guilty about breaking the law - and afraid of being caught!
I'm on Bess, the pony with the white blaze who is watching the photographer. I' m leaning out of the saddle trying to hide, although we'd agreed to be photographed. We'd met the cameraman by chance and had been surprised to encounter anyone at all.
This was the only time I rode Bess - usually I had Rocket, a skewbald whose name was a real misnomer. Dear old Bess ...see more
My sister and I lived in Ryton at Burnaby Drive, from around 1965.I learnt to swim at this wonderful pool thanks to Ernie Broderick and went on to swim for my school ( Dame Allans ) and also Northumbria.
To this day I still love the exercise.
Now living in Egypt, I swim at night in an outdoor pool in the midst of the desert.
I believe I could be the girl standing by the steps of the pool.

When my father retired from the Army my parents bought a semi detached house in Chesilton Crescent, part of the Verne Estate. Built by Comblin and Waklin (They claimed they were the best builders in the South). It was exciting to live in a brand new house rather then army quarters. Both my parents lived in the house until they died Mum in 1982 and Father1983. I sometimes go past the house but it has changed over the years.
i have many memories of Rudgwick my favorite is of picking flowers in the woods for a week before Mothers day bringing them home and hiding them in a tub of water then putting them in shoes and giving them to Mum. i think she always knew but acted surprised
My mother was a patient at the sanatorium in the early 1950s. She suffered from TB and died in 1955, though not in the sanatorium. My father and I made weekly visits by Wootten's coach from Lewisham. There nearest I was ever allowed to get was to wave to her from the coach park while she stood on a balcony as I was considered to be at risk of being infected. Not sure which would have been worse - ...see more
I was born in 1928 in the first house on the right on Sweetwater Lane. Still there, it was one of many "tied" houses occupied by those who worked for the Enton Hall estate of the Chichester family. They gave the Chichester Hall to the village in 1937. My father, born in a home at the top of Station Hill next to the Petworth road, had worked for Mrs Chichester (J and P Coats family) since the early 20's. Like my father ...see more
I was born in Liverpool Street in the centre of Crewe ( now the police station and library) with Manchester street to the rear, all the houses had an alleyway at the rear which enabled the lorry to empty the toilets which were housed in a brick shed by the gate.
The tin bath was hung on the wall beside the back door and was dragged in once a week, water was boiled on the fire and in order youngest to oldest each child was bathed, ...see more
My name is Keith Webster and I was born and brought up in Clowne. I was born on King Street before moving to Rose Avenue, then to Hickinwood Crescent, where we lived next door to Bill and Jean Ashley and their family. I was great friends with Bill Ashley, and together we would work for the Sibberings, who owned Harlesthorpe Dam, or "Bumpmill Pond" as it was affectionately known to the locals. Personally, I took care of ...see more

Born on the 15th April 1950 in my grandparents front room in Bristol Terrace I didn't realize until now what we had in those " good old days". I am a self made millionaire but I would trade all what I have now for those wonderful days of living in the Rhymney valley . Memories you ask for and here are just some of them.
My mother was divorced when I was 5 years of age so we moved in with my grandparents ...see more
This is redundant-see above
I was born in Basingstoke and was Baptised in this lovely church 63yrs ago. As was most of my family.
My grandmother lived in Burwash and we used to visit often from London. I used to roam around with my mother's younger half sister, picking spring flowers on the lane down to St Joseph's college and getting milk straight off the cooler at the farm there; scrumping or picking blackberries and nuts in the autumn. My grandmother worked at Bateman's and I used to help clean the brass and copper ware.

I lived for a few years in Barking Essex, with my Auntie Sheila and my cousins we lived in a Nissen hut in Barking park.It was a bit cramped but we had great times there. My Hanna Ring lived Hearts Lane opposite the asbestos factory, in one of the two houses on stilts right by the railway,was fun really. 12 years later a came back to live in Barking and worked at the Thames plywood factory.Was a great place to work. Barking will always be special to me.
I was born in the flat at the stables in 1965 and visited the family in the house at the stables regularly as I was growing up. It is a beautiful place that holds lots of memories.
I well remember the C of E Church on Gally Hill Road Church Crookham. I used to go to the Sunday service every week. I wasn't always very eager and the services sometimes droned on, but I always felt uplifted walking home after the service. I was confirmed at this church and married here as well. It always had a welcoming atmosphere and as I remember a large congregation frequented the church regularly. Happy days!!
My Dad had a baker and Confectioners shop in the middle of Grange Road at the north end of Grange Park. "Budds Bakery" I was born there on October 1940, and the family moved to Mitcham in 1950.
This was route to school from college avenue in mid 1950s.
We lived in College Avenue late 1950s.
Used to attend school there, remember the bakers and brook.
Grandparents ran Four Crosses.
Used to train spot at site of station sidings/ yard.

My name is Jean King - although when I attended primary school in kirkconnell I was known as Sheena Campbell. That was in 1959 to 1961 when we moved to Mansfield in England.

I lived just around the corner in County Road and was About 2 hundred yards away when the bomb dropped.I would take issue with the writer Mona Duggan in her excellent book in the Francis Frith history of Ormskirk when she says that only one bomb landed on Ormskirk and that there were no deaths. This bomb fell beside a tree in the pavement and shrapnel or debris killed a man sitting in his front room ...see more
It was in 1944 and I was an 18 year old gunner in the Royal Artillery.By mistake, my mate Peter and I found ourselves posted to a little village called Tilshead,it was a clerical error because when we got there no one at the Army unit knew what to do with us.
Sunday morning arrived,and what better to do than go to the Church of St.Thomas a Becket. In the Church were about 20 people and one soldier,me.The Vicar ...see more
I can so clearly recall the school summer holidays back in the early 70's. The paddling pool was full of kids (myself included) having a great time, splashing and playing. And the grassy banks surrounding it were full of mums with picnic blankets, towels, juice and sandwiches.
I am sure that the progress (!) that demolished the nearby Swimming pool must have also taken this wonderful place away.
I (Ken Redwood) lived at Wandsworthbridge Road from my birth in 1944 until 1966. I attended Marist Convent from 1948 until 1950. People I remember from the early years are the Cliss family, Joan and her sister, Jimmy Bishop, Carol Whitehead. Would love to hear from any of these people - or anyone else who remembers me. Also keen to find info re Harry Redwood, my grandfather who run a pet shop ...see more
Coombe Butler Farm, just off Ridge Lane, is where distant relatives farmed in the early 1900's. They were Edward and Sarah Chave and their children.
For me the memory of Carn Barges brings with it another story. That of the life of Derek and Jeannie Tangye.
For a number of years they had been looking for their ideal escape from it all place to live. One day whilst on holiday in Cornwall, it happened. As they were walking from Lamorna Cove along the coastal path, which was only an informal pathway at that time) they stopped at Carn Barges to admire the view. As ...see more
I lived just round the corner from where the bomb dropped (In County Road) and well remember the event. The bomb dropped beside a tree and there was in fact one fatality of the man whose house faced the tree, he was sitting in his front room at the table and was killed by shrapnel or flying debris. It was not the only bomb, a stick of 8 fell across Ormskirk, the first in Yew Tree Road, the second just short of ...see more
I used to walk this path every Sunday on my way to Sunday school at the chapel. Such a beautiful chapel, everyone so musically inclined, and afterwards we'd walk back home through the "beeches". This place becomes dearer to me every day, maybe because the Heley's had lived in the village for hundreds if years.
This photo brings back memories filled with trepidation, it was 1960 and I had to go into Wythenshawe hospital for plastic surgery after falling off a bicycle I was 9yrs old. The day before I was to be admitted my mum and my Auntie Jean took me down to Woolworths to buy me a Plastic "Frido" football to cheer me up. Their were gents public toilets in front of Woolies and being gripped with fear about going into hospital I ...see more

My mother grew up in the Mainstone area in the 1930s and went to the village school there (by the Churchtown turn) for a number of years. Twenty years on, my brother and I would spend most of our summer holidays in Mainstone, staying with an "auntie" (as we called her: not really a relation, but my mum's best friend from her childhood days, and as good an auntie as anyone could wish for). ...see more
Was this the coffee bar on Windsor Road between the Crown and Granada. Oh what memories!
Frothy coffee listening ro the juke box. Favourite was Nat King Cole and "Nature Boy".
Spent so many happy evenings there.
I was born at Parkgate, and came to live in Gudgeheath Lane, Fareham in 1940 at the age of 2. Gudgeheath lane was a proper lane in those days, nothing like today. I played in the cornfield and woods and went to Funtley School. The Hammond Road housing estate was built in 1948, and the woods and cornfield were no more. I eventually went to Purbrook Grammar school, and in my teens went to the Fareham youth ...see more

Linda Maskell was Catley .
In 1967 I was sent up to the Ford Competitions Department as Resident Engineer at the age of 20. I stayed for almost a whole year in the Six Bells.

There was a dog, a golden retriever, that I used to take for walks, well actually he ...see more
My Father held a senior position at Brickwoods Brewery in Portsmouth from the late 1940's until the mid 1970's.
He and his colleague would stop off at The White Hart for a "quickie" on the way home from work on a Friday.If I was good they would bring me a lemonade before the onward journey home to Denmead. Ahh. Happy days. I now drink something stronger !
My father was in the army and was stationed in Haig Lines in 1958. I went to the Gally Hill Junior CofE School which you can just see of the right of this picture. I was 9years old when we moved here and remember the long walk to and front school every day. Along Sandy Lane, crossing over Aldershot Road by the Memorial Hall, round the corner into Gally Hill Road and past The Wyvern pub. Going ...see more
The first time I walked into the little shop nearest to our school reminds me of something out of a Charles Dickinson's novel the little bell tingling as you opened the shop door and a little lady behind the counter serving, we would spend 6p of our pocket money on sweets then walk back to school a long country lane picking damsons along the hedgerows.
Sundays some of us would go to morning service at church rest of us had to go on a hike through Delemere Forest which I enjoyed.
My name is David Thomas. I was born in 1938, in Plymouth, but my parents lived in Warren Road in Kingsbridge. Next door lived Billy Maddick, and I would go there to listen to 'Dick Barton, Special Agent' because I was not allowed to listen at home! My other friends from those days who lived nearby were David Mathews and Keith Warren.
For a period, during the war, we were evacuated to Wooton ...see more

When I was 2 and a half we moved down to 7 Springfield Holme Mills. It was a three bedroom house that looked over the dam to the mill and fields. There was a lot of Wilde life on the dam like ducks, coots and swans, the ducks used come ...see more

i used to use the waller st. youth club in waller st. and also the swimming baths opposite.I spent hours in the Victory cafe and walked miles around the milk bars.Does any one remember the Vic.WE had a lot of Americans then as competition for the ladies then. Ken Allen now of Norwich.
This photo shows my mum pushing the pram with me in it! This photo would have been taken in 1959.
Been lovely reading through others memories, recognise so many places. I used to live behind the swimming baths and during the winter sit in my bedroom listening to the bands. Couldn't wait until I was old enough to go to the dances there. It was magical, seeing the likes of Ted Heath, Johnny Dankworth any many more was just wonderful. I have lived in Yorkshire for over 40 years now, but will never forget my roots.
