I was born in a house called 'Little Heath' in Chapel Lane ,South Littleton in 1934. I have many memories of my childhood before the family moved to Suffolk after the war in 1945 I stared school in 1939 at the school over in Middle/North Littleton, walking there over the field starting with access through the copse at the top of farm lane. Our parents had no need to accompany us even ...see more
I remember the swimming pool. My mum used to take us all day in the school holidays. My friend Adele and I used to go there in the evening in September. My dad used to drop us off. We were the only ones in there and it was freezing. It would take us ages to get in. We must have been mad. I live in Australia now and the children here won't go into a pool unless it is heated!!!!! I also ...see more
I lived in 2 Oak Villas as a child from 1960-1966 then my last name was Burge....I now live in the USA and would like to hear from anybody who lived at Common Side the same time as me. My grandmother who now has passed was Agnes Helyer then was widowed then remarried and took the last name Whitcombe she lived in the small cottage next to the Cricketers Pub then in the bungalows across from the pub.
I can remember going to the circus in the car park in Park Lane. It would have been in the early 50's which then became the site of the Tech College in later years. Also across the road was the fire station, before St George's tower block was built. Can anyone remember the coal yard in Dingwall Road on the right hand side from George Street. I went to Coloma prep school in the 50's and hated walking up Dingwall Road on my own to catch the bus at East Croydon home.
This photo is way past 1950 as this place is Mansfield Road Hill leading out of Swallownest, it is after the council had re-modelled the hill making it a wider road with a tarmac footpath. On the left where the road levels out is the depot set up when the road was re-constructed.
The first building over the bridge was Pritchards orchard entrance, they used to sell produce at that building, as kids we used to raid the orchard. I lived on Alexandra rd and over a field was the orchards, we got nabbed sometimes. The photo is after 1950 because I remember the council working on the footpath and putting down the road bollards and extending out the footpath. Looking up High St you can see the 3 ...see more
High St is the main rd or the A57 going through Swallownest on to Sheffield. On the left was the main bus stop, presumably the people are waiting for the bus. When I was 13 (1963) its the stop I used to catch the bus going to Woodhouse grammer school. In the distance the lorry is at the cross roads, left to Beighton and right to Rotherham. Beighton is where we went train spotting on the main lines at the old ...see more
I was born at Northlands in 1953 and I do believe the home is still there
The garage I recall, when the old man died and they were selling off all the goods. The car is parked outside the pub, but just higher up where the lorry is parked was the Oak Inn, a pub frequented by myself. I knew the landlord's son Michael Mckeown, I went to school with him and he married my sister. By the side of the Oak Inn was 3 attatched houses, one is where my grandma lived just about ...see more
Its the year I was born, so I don't have immediate memory. I grew up there and went to the infant school at the top of the hill on this photo, the corner store on the left is the beer off licence where I would go and get port wine for mum and dad, this is a view of high st, on the right, was the butcher, fishmonger ,newsagent ,grocer,
This shot faces north towards the "T" junction where Queens Road runs across the North end of Camp Road. The road running off to the right in the foreground is "High Street" and used to be the terminus for the Aldershot and District bus service no 3c which ran from High Street to the Hawley Lane estate via Sycamore Road. In the fifties there was a steam laundry at the right hand corner of the Camp/Queens "T" ...see more
Unless I am mistaken, this shot is pointing due south in which the trees of Lynchford Road can be seen in the distance. The distant building on the left hand corner of the "T" junction at the end of Camp Road was "Boots cash chemists" and had by 1965 engulfed "Timothy Whites" which was situated next door to it on both Camp and Lynchford roads. When we arrived in Farnborough in the mid fities I was struck by the ...see more
I, alongside four sisters, were were born at number 7 Keynsham Avenue. My grandfather owned the house before my parents. I attended Woodford Green Primary School with my younger sister from 1968 onwards. The names of the neighbours I remember were as follows, Edgar, Banfield, Pamenter, Brett, Miles, Althorpe. We played for hours around Highams park lake and the park at the bottom of Keynsham ...see more
36 Peatling Road is the double fronted house shown on the right. Owened by May Brookes and rented to the Bursnall family. Bobbie Bursnall was the village bobby before my husband was born. He lived there untill his grandma Annie Mary Elizabeth Bursnall died. Does not remember the year she died but does remember the funeral at Countesthorpe Cemetery.
Have lived in Addlestone for 46 years teaching in the old St. Paul`s Junior and the newer Middle School. St. Paul`s Church celebrates 175 years this year and as a member of the church choir for over 35 years I am researching the history of the choirs at St. Paul`s and St. Augustines Churches. I have photos of St. Paul`s Choir dating from 1945 and one taken outside the old `Tin Church` [St. Augustines ] ...see more
Born and bred in Woodford. Had a paper round at WH Smith on the Woodford railway station. Not too bad in the summer but freeezing cold on the winter mornings. Sang in the choir at St Barnabas Church and receive 3 shillings and sixpence a month [I think] if I attended all the services and practices and a shilling for weddings. Later worked after school and Saturday morning in John's Fish Shop in the ...see more
Any one remember the Central Youth Club in Waller Street oposite the indoor Baths??Had some great times there and met my husband there 55 years ago. The Freddie Arnold Seven band on Saturday night we would make the floor bounce with our ~~JIVING~~And us girls used to sneak in little bottles of Baby Cham.. Left Luton in 1965 to settle in Australia . Looking at the pics and reading the comments ibrings back good memories !!!!!
Italian born Goffredo Valco known to the locals as Alf was my great grandfather he along with his wife Maud owned and ran the icecream palour on the bottom on crown bank. I would love to hear any memories of my great grandparents and their business.
Reading the previous memory was exactly like my own childhood. I spent all the summer in the copse at the bottom of Meadow Road. It was magical as a child and the freedom to explore and make believe contributes to a wonderfull childhood. Bluebells in abundance and the comment about waving to the trains and the may queen fete brought it all back. When my family moved away in 63 it was ages before I could sleep properly as I ...see more
My dear late Dad was born and grew up in Netley Abbey in 1941. His real name Patrick Perry but was known as 'Slim Jim', his mother was Lily Bundy. Would love to hear from anyone who knew my dad or the family.
I visited my birthplace and I took my family to see where I was born. I met a lovely couple that now reside there; they invited me in and showed me around the house. With fond thoughts, my mind drifted back all those years recalling visions of my mother and gran. I visited their graves at the local cemetery and found great peace and contentment in finding them after 56 years. I will visit them again to ...see more
Just looking at this photo brings back so many memories of shopping with my mum and two brothers.Getting chips on the way back from shopping or an icecream in Rossi's was a great treat. I went to school at Fairlop Primary & Secondary School until we emigrated to Australia in April 1967. I've been back a couple of times to visit relatives and old neighbours, but would love anyone who knows the ...see more
I can remember the sweet shop just outside the school, I would run there (during playtime) for sweets. There was a wooden step for small children to be able to see over the counter and a seat. I used to get 2oz of a mix of sweets and they would be put in a cone of paper that the lady made and turned over at the top. Then it was wait for the all clear from friends that no teachers were ...see more
I attended Cefn Fforest infants and primary school 1939 to1946. The headmaster was Mr Watkins and teachers were; Mr Prothero, Mr Smith, Miss Gordan and Miss Richards (baby class) plus there were others that have sliped my memory. Doctors; Dr Mackensy and Dr Arthur and the District Nurses, Nurse Brown and Nurse Deal. The policeman was Sgt Church. I also remember the Whit Walks, I led them on a number of occasions carrying the cross from St Thomas church.
Does anyone remember the Thompsons of No1 Bog Houses? Mary and Jimmy lived there with their daughter Nancy. They ran a pork shop for a time I think in the 40's but it closed during the war years; the shop front remained until around 1966. I am Nancy's granddaughter, and stayed there every weekend from about 1959 to 1965. The houses looked very different and were all red brick as I remember. We played in the fields ...see more
I lived at Belcroft nurseries at the bottom of Catsash Road from 1970 to 1982. I remember a lot of the people you mention, and Major the dog. I went to Sunday school and was in the choir of the Methodist chapel.
Behind the Implement Gate you can just see a large house that has now been demolished to make way for a not very pretty estate. The large house was owned by the Calverton family who were considered to be very 'posh', and were often seen riding their horses around the village, they had stables on land at the rear of the house, where the fields were farmed by the Mason family whos farm and house on ...see more
I was born in 1949 and lived in New Mill until 1973. I clearly remember the Implement gate, what happened to it? We used to meet there as boys, close to the canal where we played football in a field known as "Sewage Farm Stadium" as it adjoined the open sewage works where we dug worms for fishing. There was very little traffic at that time and we raced carts made from old prams down the hill by the Red ...see more
I was born in 1966 in Swindon but I would spend every weekend in Green Street, High Wycombe with the grandparents (Austin). My father played the piano in the dance band called The Revue, which my grandad John organised. John spent his working life in the Parker Knoll factory, think he was a foreman, unfortunately he passed away in 1972 so I didn't have long to get to know him. As a child always remember ...see more
From 1950 to about 1956 (was 5_11 yrs old) lived at 149 Footscray Rd which was a converted coach house very near the TA drill hall. Often kept awake by the rifle practice. House now demolished and replaced by little close of houses (according to Google) . Then at #231 for a couple of years then moved away and haven never been back. My best memories were of playing in 'the fields' from Eltham to Avery Hill. I would love a photo of that part of Footscray Rd at that time
I grew up in Creffield Road, West Acton. I went to West Acton Primary School, then onto Derwentwater, then Twyford. Good Happy times, I lived in the same house for 18 years, then as a family we moved to Bletchley, Milton Keynes. If you know me I would love to chat over the early years of my life.
I was born in Hereford and for the first couple of months of my life lived with my grandparents in Lower Lodge, Lugwardine before moving to Seven Kings, Ilford, Essex. From about 1953-60, each year I spent much of the school holidays staying in Lugwardine with my grandmother (Gertrude Jenkins). I so enjoyed being there with her. Lower Lodge was a beautiful thatched cottage. Coming from Hereford it was the first ...see more
I am trying to find old photographs of my house which is the former school in Hoghton...Holy Trinity.The school was converted to a house in the early Eighties.I would love to see how the building looked as a school...perhaps if you were a pupil or lived in the village you might have some old snaps tucked away in a cupboard? I would really love to see them.Many thanks.
I moved here with my parents in - I think - 1959 from a shared council flat (remember them?) It was new at the time. We had maisonette 179 on the 7th & 8th floors and I was impressed (age 8) at being able to go downstairs to the library without going outside. I seem to remember a laundrette on the ground floor too.
We escaped about 18 months later as the concrete was still damp from construction (much ...see more
In September 1940 my wife, now 82 yrs, was bombed in Silvertown, East London docks.
Her familyof 8 were taken to a scouts hut in Theydon Bois, Essex. From there they were moved to Budworth Hall, Ongar, Essex. then they were moved on to Torrells Hall, Willingale, Essex. Finally they found a home in Norton Heath, Ongar, Essex for the rest of the war. If anyone can remember can they post.
When I got out Buckhurst Hill Station and went up the hill, I had at a certain point to turn right. A little bit further was a tiny hospital or something like that.
I was 17 years old and from Holland and hardly spoke English. I became matron's maid. The matron was a very sweet lady. She didn't give me much work'. In fact, we rather were having tea. Of course, there were some more chores, like bringing the ...see more
I might be wrong with the year but, this is about the time the old primary school (Shore Road), moved into the new school at Bendarroch Park.
My last class room at the old school was in the Gibson Hall (where from memory our gym classes were also held).
I remember some names from those days: Janet and Sandra, the Macadam twins; Marion McCuish; Donald Smith; Alex Hamilton; Shiela Vanen; Fiona McNab; Angus ...see more
I worked as a junior technician in the Research Laboratory of the Sheffield Centre for the Investigation and Treatment of Rheumatism under the leadership of Dr Harry West and George Newnes, based in the Nether Edge Hospital.
The little van that can be seen in the photo was my dadss. He owned the shop on the corner of Springfield Rd (Baker Bros), an ironmongers. Lots of your parents would have known it. Used to sell everything. Happy Days.

As my parents were abroad I was placed here during school holidays for two years. Mr and Mrs Riedel. Have so many photos and memories of all the children were there also. Rosalind, Irene, Marie Elizabeth, Peter Eder, Paul and so many others. Putting our names on the swinging tree, secret rooms, dens, up on the moors and so much more. Went back about 1979 and saw that the facade had gone. I have the W from the church weather vane.

In the early 80's I can remember watching a film about the Pit Ponies at Thorpe Hesley Pit. I think it was called Escape from the Dark... I've googled this and not found much. I've love to see this film again. I'm looking for a download or DVD, not VHS... Any suggestions? Thanks
When I moved to Cornfield Road in early 1990, Cornfield Store at the corner was still an old style corner shop but only for a year or so.
My grandmother was Evelyn Foster, nee Morris, and her 2 brothers were Tom and Charles. My grandmother moved to England but her brothers stayed in Wales and both lived in Merthyr Vale; Tom in Crescent St and Charles in Taff Street. Charles died in the 60's and as children we often used to go and stay with his widow, my great aunt Phyllis. I'd love to hear from anyone who knew them and who could give me some pointers in tracing my grandmother's family tree.
Many thanks.
My dad grew up in Loscoe, his parents and their parents too; my dad is 69 now. When I was a young un', there was only Mr Mason's shop, the old school and the Loscoe Villas still left in Loscoe - I am 41! Dad rented out the old school when it closed for his truck business and we lived a 4 Loscoe Villas. Most of the people who lived in Loscoe were moved to the purpose built houses in Ackton, they ...see more
I used to live with my mum, Rosalie, and dad, Joe, brother John and sister Mary in No.2 and later No.4 Salem (it could have been the other way round). The Jim and Doll Yeo lived one side of us and my dad's sister, Rona and Ted Hamzij the other side and their children; Michael, Ann and maybe Nick. We had an outside toilet, a tin bath on the wall which was brought in on Sunday nights. My mum cooked on ...see more
I remember Welling Corner so well. My father owned the fish shop on the right and we lived in the flat over the shop. Welling then was a buzzing place and I used to love watching from my bedroom window. I still remember the shops; Caters, Mains, Contobs, Liptons, Dewhursts and Smiths fruit and veg (my uncle's) who were next door to us. The corner was always bustling with people especially at Xmas. There was no ...see more
I have traced my grandfather, Albert and his father, William Owen to No.1a High Street; a gunsmith.
I remember so well my first day at primary school in 1943. I was in Miss Barnes' class, there was a wooden and glass partition between that and the next door class of Miss Martin. I was terrified, the noise seemed so intense and I cried all day! From then on I found every excuse possible not to go to school but somehow shortly afterwards nothing would keep me away from school (swat) despite being scared of the ...see more
I live in Washington and have done so for the past 30 years. Currently, I am looking at the role of women in WW1. Does anyone have any information on Sarah Ferguson, deceased 1918 and shown on the Washington war memorial, the only woman on the memorial? Why was her name inscribed on the war memorial?
My dad was Rod Welsh a football player in the 30's. He played for Portsmouth and Port Vale. Are there any photo's out there? We lived in Forest Hall till we moved to Canada. Great place to grow up - anybody got any photo's of the village?
Ann Brewer (nee Welsh)
The part of Canley where we lived was made up of what were called "the steel houses" and "the prefabs". Charter Avenue was a dual carriageway and then, at the beginning of Ten Shilling Woods it became a single road. I was always told that it had been begun during the War and was built by Italian POW's; when the war ended they went home and the road was never completed. The house we lived in was built by Wimpey. The woods ...see more
I can remember going in J E Cooke shop for chocolate and papers, and just past this shop on the left was Amblers fish shop where we went for our fish and chips. On the other side of the road I went into the butchers for meat with my mum, then we would call into Jessops chemist and on the way back home we would call in Marsden for butter cheese and other things. When I had my two boys I used to take them to ...see more

That my Grandad in this pic.(Harry)
I have virtually all these original post cards as shown on this site.
After my grandfather (Harry Bullen), Holmbury Post Master, stopped publishing his own, he changed to Friths.
My bedroom was in the western end of the P.O (see tiny window) overlooking the shed in the attached pic. This was an electrical shop in the 50's 60's run by Pat Overington.
My father, Godfrey, was born in the house.
More later if anyone interested .
I was born at St. Helier hospital and lived in Stayton Road until I married in 1974. Our house backed on to the Pylbrook and the Oldfields Trading Estate, owned by the Wheeler family. One of the older boys kept a puma in a flat there and would take it for walks, on a lead, past our house. Families in Stayton Road were: Hardy; Dowse; Summerton (us);Gregory; Belt; Pooley; Fisher;Rollason; Stammers; ...see more

My mom, Nancy McGeachie (married to Ken Collins in British Columbia, Canada), was born in the building on the corner Main Street and Richmond Terrace in 1926 and then lived in #5 Kilmarnock Road. I had heard so much of Dundonald growing up and spent many a time looking at the paintings of the castle that my mom had hanging on her wall, that the moment we approached and I saw the castle on the hill, ...see more
The saddest of news. A member kindly sent me a link about Jimmy Rose and I was delighted to find old pictures of him. Looking further, I discovered that Jimmy died just two years ago. However, it does illustrate the value of this site, and the generosity of members who give their time to respond as they do. My search for my old friend is now ended, but the memories are still there.
Please forgive the spelling as I have a degenerative problem with my left eye.
I have been trying to write a tale for my grand kids,
What I know is that my grandmother moved from London Islington, with several kids, to Birmingham where her husband, Arthur Butler, had moved having found a very good job as a lithographic printer.
She arranged to meet him at the train station, city centre, but he never showed. ...see more
My nan, Coral Newton, started the Brownies group in Horndon on the Hill in 1963 or 1964; she still has her Brown Owl badge. I was hoping to find out if there are any photos or if anyone went to the Brownies as it was something so close to her heart.
I have been to this village but did not know this was the house my gt grandparents and grandparents lived it, my gt grandparents were Walter Selfe and Mary Maria Draper they married in Garbolidsham in 1877. I hope to be able to return again soon. kind regards, Lesley
From February - September 1944, my newly wed Dad and Mum had as their home a Fishermans Hut at Two Mile Bottom. We aren't 100\% sure, but we think it was some 400m south south west of the power station on the east bank of the Little Ouse. We went back as a family in 1963. Dad reckoned that the coat of paint on the hut was the one he applied in 1944! Anyone know exactly where the hut was or what happened ...see more
Did anyone see Jimmy Hendrix at the starlight ballroom on 15/10/1967 OR The Who at the Civic Hall
I also own a brick in the cathedral! Because my father was the Baptist Minister in Godalming I was fortunate enough to be invited to the consecration of the cathedral in the presence of HM The Queen in May 1961. The tower was not in place then and was added afterwards. The Bishop of Guildford was then George Reindorp, who now has a school named after him. I have often played the organ there - a fabulous ...see more
My father was the minister of the Baptist Church in Queen Street from 1962 until 1970. The little church was too small to hold his welcome services so these were held in the Congregational Church, with tea in the hall. He often preached in this church on Good Feiday and Christmas Day when the non conformist churches held a united service. When I was old enough I used to attend a Bible Class called Crusaders ...see more
I was a boarder at WGS from 1957 to 1964 and it doesn't live in my mind as the happiest place in the world - but there were plenty of girls who did love it, I remember. I was only thinking of it yesterday, Remembrance Sunday, because that was the one Sunday of the year we were arranged around the War Memorial in the centre of the town to sing "Oh God our Help in Ages Past"... same thing every ...see more

I am trying to make contact with anyone with surname Orchard whose ancestors were, or are from Old Sodbury or Yate. I am almost certain my Great-Grandfather, James Orchard, is the James Orchard baptised 27 March 1803 in Old Sodsbury son of James Orchard 1763 Yate/1851 Old Sodbury and Hannah Carter. My James Orchard married in Cape Town in 1832 and indicated his previous residence was Bristol. Kind regards. Evan Franklin
I lived 30 years at Monk Hopton, my mother, Barbara Stoves, was the school headmistress from 1954 until it closed in 1980 (I think 1980). It closed when she became ill; it was her determination largely that kept it open. She always said that there was a 'Monkhopton book' kept in the estate house (Marsh family). In it she told me there was a photo of Thomas Hardy (the author); he is said to have based Tess of 'Tess ...see more
My husband and I ran Lyndale Guest House 1967-1971 and enjoyed meeting many interesting families mostly from Northern England. I wonder if any of them are reading this?

We decided to emigrate to Australia but have been back to the area several times to enjoy the lovely area especially ...see more
