I worked for Nat west Bank when first married, we moved to Stevenage New Town. Loved living there.
Billy must have died when I was about 9 or so, say about 1949, and I do believe Liza died in about 1953, she died peacefully in bed. We did not see her one day, one of the men went in and she was upstairs in bed, she had died in the night. She had seemed ok the night before, she may have been feeling ill but did not say so to anyone. The house was sold for about £65.
They had 3 daughters, Nora, named after Nora ...see more
Conclusion
On my last visit it was hard to see where the village was. The small triangular field is now a park but it looks so small. The place I remember seemed so much larger than Small Park that is now there.
Having been raised in a small village throughout the 40's and into the 50's we may not have had many possessions, but what little we did have was appreciated. Above all though, we valued our family, our ...see more
My mom and dad and sister lived in Tilford until 1954 when we immigrated to Canada, as my dad rejoined the army so we left to join him in Ottawa, Canada. We left my Nan and Gramps and uncle and aunt and many cousins and so many little friends that I had made. But 60 years later I have returned to see the same neighbour on one side and my dad's local still standing, looking wonderful, and the old bridge I used ...see more
And had an inter-house sports day annually that was highly contested. The school was divided into four houses, St Columbus, St Aiden, and St Patrick and St Cuthbert’s.
Church attendances were very high, poor Fr. Tuohey had to give three masses every Sunday to enable everyone to attend. These were given at 9am, 10am and 11am and were always full (St Michaels is not a small church either).
Just a little more. ...see more
And the upper floor as the church for worship. This remained like this until approx 1880 when the old primary school was built. (This is now demolished and turned into a housing estate). Between the junior and senior school playground was a wooden building known by all as The Hut. It was painted green and was getting a bit dated. I suppose it had been used by the church for social events at one time.
The upper ...see more
Most of the family would help to do this, it took several weeks to complete. Some looked very good according to the people’s skill.
The Children
All played together, boys and girls, all age groups and all stayed out until called in, generally about 9.30pm summer or winter. In daylight hours we played football, cricket and rounders. After dark we played “Kick the Tin”, “Jack Shine the Magi” and other games. ...see more
Entertainment
The Men: Mostly the pubs provided a good range of entertainment with darts, dominoes and cards being played. Some men kept greyhounds or whippets for racing, but generally gardening took up a lot of their time, as this helped to feed the family, and there were allotments enough for all. This also then led on to hobbies with things such as Leek Shows, Flower Shows and as about 15% of the allotments ...see more
My mom and dad were married in the congregational church in Wonersh she was a war bride and
her maiden name was Leigh. She married a Canadian soldier in June of 1944. My sister Barbara was born in England and my mom and sister travelled to Canada in June 1946 and I was born in North Bay, Ontario in 1947. We returned to England and lived in Tilford, Surrey for 6 years and then my dad, Ralph Morin, rejoined the ...see more
I lived in Tooting and my then boyfriend, Johnny Finch, lived in Zennor Road along with his family, mum Elsie, dad Jack, siblings Jeanne, Elsie, Tony and John. There was an older brother too, who also lived in Zennor Road with his wife Rose. We had the most wonderful parties there with all the neighbours coming in, including the Flower family who lived across the road. One man called 'bomber' who was well ...see more
I so remember the shop on the corner, Mum used to go in and look at the clothing patterns - don't remember her ever buying very many, but she would go home and make her own paper patterns from memory and hey presto, new dresses for my sister and me! It was so good then, with very few cars.
My Nan, used to play the piano at the cinema during silent movies - she lived in Peckham all her life and I would love to know more ab out this.
This is really to try and find out if anybody in Leiston may rember the late Mr Robert Wood Stewart. He married Miss Doris Clouting in the late 1940's and had two children Robert John, and Christine Edith. Sadly he gassed himself in the kitchen of their council house on 19 August 1961. Does anybody out there remember him? Sadly he was drinking heavily and seeing lots of people. We are trying to trace any siblings he may have had. Sheila (Sutton).
I remember the pram/toy shop on the corner, there was also a fabric shop - I think it was where Famished sandwich bar was (can't remember what it is called now..) I could buy a piece of fabric, 'a remnant for 2 shillings' and make my then 2 year old daughter a dress that evening, and she would wear it to playschool the next day... it was in Western Road. 'Happy Hours' it ...see more
I have been in that post office lots of times
I was at St Marys Convent, Radford, a boarding school run by nuns for young girls wanting to be nuns. I was there for a few years - quite harsh. Anyone else got any memories?
Does anyone remember Ashwell Hall which was in Great Bardfield (I think)? I was born there and my grandfather Mark Allen, and grandmother Alice lived there. My grandfather, worked for Captain Cook and ran the apple orchards, there were POW's working there - they were Polish (I think). My mother Rose Allen also helped out there, she also played piano at the local pub. I have been back and can't find Ashwell Hall ...see more
I wonder what ever happened to Linda Winters and her sister. Their father had a shop in Green Street and also worked at the Dorchester hotel.
I lived in Lucien Road for sixty five years until two years ago. My memories start when I was about five with my dear old dad taking me out on his barrow to sell firewood - I thought it was great fun. Also, my mum taking me to haylocks at the bottom of Church Lane - I think it's a curry house now. I used to play out in the street all the time and my friends were Helen Little, Anne O'Connor, Brian Curtis, Terry Sheehan ...see more
The shop, owned and run by Miss Cowup, opposite our grandparent's farm, (Wilton & Annie Hewitt) Hill Top Farm. Our uncle, Ted Hewitt, would send us across the road to the shop to purchase Tizer or Dandelion n-burdock, a great treat. If we were sent to buy ice-cream on special occasions you had to get past the dog food, frozen rabbits (with fur still on) in the freezer. Don't think I will ever forget. No ...see more
Wanted, did you work at the diesel depot at Shirebrook? Looking for information as I'm in the process of building a website about the diesel depot.
If you have any pictures, stories,diagrams,memories etc about working at the depot, please contact me at epbridge@aol.com or 07983 117 638
thanks alan
Hello
Does anyone remember my lovely grandfather, Percy Plant, he lived in Dormanstown, a huge strapping fine man. He was the swimming instructor at Redcar Baths, he was also a tourist attraction on the pier and Redcar beach area, known also for his diving.
I grew up in Dormanstown, in parts in the Wilton Avenue area, Clara Lady Dorman School, teacher, Mrs Tweedle. I ...see more
I was born and raised in Irthlingborough. I was born in 1948 above the shop to the left of The Bull, opposite the old bakery. Back then Finedon Road was quite narrow at that point. My grandmother owned the shop at the time. It was later owned by the Maddock family, I believe, and was a grocery shop. The old bakery and other buildings were all pulled down to make the open space it is ...see more
It's a long story, trying to relate to my childhood days living above the "Meadow Dairy" then living at No.2 Caledonia St. Who said they were the bad old days, never been happier in my life, what with the battles against the "new" St. gangs, and the mischief we got up to, I could write here for ever, but, maybe later if your interested, suffice to say I'll be remembered by a few, ...see more
I wonder if anyone remembers the Paradigm Brigade (PB) and the youth club in Northwood Road Thornton Heath?
I joined the brigade which was run by "Cap" (Mr Atwell) in the 50's, and like so many other boys and girls in the area, had a great time with them up to the time my family moved from Thornton Heath to Shirley. After this I lost contact with everyone, except Doug Atwell, who sadly passed away several years ago.
Is there anyone out there who remembers the Walker family from Clamley Road?
I was born in 54 Mountain Row to Richard and Mary Jane Tustin. I remember Blaenllechau as one huge playground and when someone asked you where you lived, you always said "up the Top" it was a magic place where the sun never seemed to go down and when it did then you knew it was time for bed. People seemed to look after each other in them days, no need for locks on your doors. On New Years Day a ...see more
Hello
Does anyone remember my great uncle's general store in High Halden? It was called Fowlers general store and was run by Frank Fowler.
I remember the doctor used to visit the village once or twice a week & set up his surgery in Mrs Benton's house. Mrs Benton, (Alice, or was that her daughter?), lived in the cottage at the end of the row, furthest away in the picture. The waiting room was Mrs's Benton's sitting room, we used to sit with her as we waited for our turn, I would've been 5yrs old at the time. Sometime after that I remember ...see more
I remember Shilbottle when, as a 5 year old, moved into 42 Farn View. The estate was unfinished and the children who moved in had one whale of a time taking the putty out of the windows every night when the workmen had gone. I still love the smell of putty, it was the 1950s play dough. Also the beautiful snowdrops which grew on the side of the road above the church made a beautiful posy for my mum. The ...see more
My abiding memory of Hyde as a child growing up in the late 50's - 60's was going shopping with my mum on a Saturday afternoon. My mum always dressed up as though it was a special occasion. We always went into Ibbotson's where my auntie worked and where at times, when they were short staffed, my mum would wash the dishes. Their strawberry tarts are the best I have ever eaten. I remember that lovely sweet shop a few doors ...see more
Tracing my family history and led to Great Ayton. My G/mother..Anne Eliza Stabler and my G/father Frederick Henry Stabler lived in Church St...... now Guisbro Road??? Found her unmarked grave recently in graveyard. Died March 1933. Frederick Henry was born in Canada in about 1885, but I cant find out much about him. My father Frederick John married my Mother..Ethel Noble in 1942 ...see more
Does anyone else remember Phillips the Mapmakers in Victoria Road, North Action? I started there straight from school as a trainee (cartographer). I was only there 6 months before the bright lights and higher wages of banking lured me away (fool that I was), but I remember the factory well - the clocking on and off, the room of light tables I worked in and the aged spinster in charge, ...see more
I have just been reading through some of the newer memories after not being on this site for quite a while, but a comment about Hounslow Heath reminded me of the times we went to the Heath when my dad was going through a period of being interested in making and flying model airplanes. This was not specifically in 1955 but during the 50s as a whole. I also remember one day as we drove off the Staines Road onto ...see more
I've lived in Cowplain since 6 yrs old in 1968. To an earlier post above, on the corner of Durley Avenue and the main London Road, Cowplain, was a toy shop on one half - and was a radio & TV shop in the other half (a Grundig & ITT agent I recall!)....and was called CWJ Tumber - Charlie Tumber if I remember right (very unusual surname which is why it sticks in the ...see more
My grandparents lived in Bryn Mynach Avenue (Beach family) and later my Uncle Fred & Aunty Doreen. My own mother had moved to London shortly after leaving school.
My brother spent the war years in Ystrad and I have spent many a happy holiday staying in the area. I still have a lot of cousins living in Maes y Cwmmer and Caerphilly areas.
I always try and get down to South Wales from Essex at least once or twice a year.
Always good times and the last three trips this year the sun has shone.
My great grandmother was born in Nancledra. Her father was a tin miner at Wheal Kitty and she was a tin dresser when she was older. She married a farm labourer and moved to St Erth. The family stories about this area are very vivid - picnics on Trencromb Hill, the strictness of the school masters and the pride of the Cornish people.
I used to live in the village in the square, at the left side of a drive to Mr Williams farm where my father used to work. The church is on the right of the drive. Moving along I went to the infants school and played in the square with other children. My dad's name was Mr Edwin Buckley, mother's Doris. My brothers David and Dennis was there too.
I now live in Southampton, married with two grown up children Paul and Cheryl.
The Seagoing Years.
I must have left the Army sometime in August or September of 1949, and went back to C.J.King & son, tug owners, to carry on with my job as deck boy. This was not to my liking, as I was now twenty, and scrubbing floors for 3 quid a week all hours of the day and night was beneath my dignity, even though I was only getting 26 Shillings in the Army, but that ...see more
I went to this school and left at the age of 15yrs in 1967. My maiden name was Binns and I lived in Shaw Crescent, next to St Hildas Church. I had some good times in the school, but I lost touch with my school pals. I married in the St Mathews church on Bolckow Rd which has now been pulled down. It was a lovely church. I wish I could turn the clock back to those days xx
Its not really a memory, I need help. I'm researching my family tree but my mum, Maureen Elizabeth Yates born 2nd June 1942 was adopted. I know she was born in Ilkley to a Kathleen M Yates and was adopted by Sidney Smith and Mary Jane? Smith (known as Janey). As far as I know Kathleen died just after my mum was born and my mum's real father was a secret! But I do believe he came from Guisley?
I was on The Anne White Wing for 18 months and loved every minuite. I remember nurses called Dennis Sidebottom, Karen Gullick, and Steve Eastburn. I used to go to the hospital school during the week and I think my teacher was called Mrs Hughes. The eldest boy in my class ws called Peter, he was a day patient. We became friends and spent a lot of time together exploring the hospital. We were really naughty as we ...see more
I was in Hopedene in 1964, from late Febuary till June. My baby died in there before her birth in the town's main hospital. Won't go into details here. Have only unhappy memories of the place and I will never forget being in there. My maiden name was Pauline Sutcliffe and I was put in there by my parents who intended for me to have my baby adopted, and I would have had no say in the matter. Glad these places don't exist any more.
My Dad, Thomas Edmund Miller was born at 7 Bell Street, Ludgershall. Dad died at our home in Willingdon, East Sussex in 1956 aged 50). Until I had some family research done, I always thought he was a Londoner. On a vist to UK in 2001 from NZ I decided to visit his place of birth. I found the house in Bell Street and knocked on the door with a view to introducing myself and hopefully having a ...see more
Seeing the familiar stance of Willie Jenks reminds me of the Saturdays when I walked from Shelley Lane with my mate Malcolm 'Pinger' Fitton to get our hair cut. We sat waiting for what seemed an eternity to an eight year-old and when eventually I sat in the chair, facing a large mirror with sink under it, Willie was too busy looking at a stripped down old valve radio in the sink next to mine and scratching his ...see more
Every summer in the 1980s I would pester mum and dad to play on the mini Island, I loved it. I loved the fact that it was a little bit scary when you lost your footing on the slippery mounds of the 'downs' and you would slide into the 'sea'. I could have stayed there for hours as a child, much to my parents' boredom! Ventnor will always be sharp stones in your feet on the beach, hopping over the hot road for a mint choc chip ice cream then into the Gaiety in the height of summer.
The first time I went to Dymchurch was with my mother, stepfather, brothers and sister. We stayed at Pippers Field Caravan Park. Discovering Dymchurch, there was a desterted holiday camp with all the windows smashed. The holiday camp looked as though it had been empty and abandoned for quite some time. We wandered off exploring the old buildings leaving my mother and step father behind. As children we ...see more
My family built and lived at Merthyr Mawr. My grandfather was a younger son, so left there when he grew up and married, to another Nicholl. However he managed the estate and when I was a small child we would regularly visit my grandparents, then living at Laleston, and would always spend time at Merthyr Mawr.
At that time the hospital that had occupied the ground floor during the war had gone, leaving it ...see more
In 1944, I was evacuated to Badshot Lea, with my mum. My dad, as a plumber & vital to the war effort, was in Liverpool & not in Europe or elsewhere in the Theatre of war. I can remember as a 4 year old, standing, I think, in a southerly direction towards a field in front of me & hills in the distance. I remember seeing a fighter plane crash on the hillside some 1-3 miles. Approx 10 years ago, I ...see more
Hello, I and my twin sister were born close to Ospringe at Painters Forstal next to Mr Flites hop field. The date was 10 of September 1940.
My father had brought my mother away from the bombing in East Ham. He was a dock worker and his work was vital to the war effort, so he had to return to the docks, leaving mum with all the relatives who were there to pick hops.
Mum actually gave birth to us in a small farm house ...see more
We were married at St Mary's on Christmas Eve 1967, and had our reception at the Phoenix. I had lived in Staines from 1945 until getting married. I went to Shortwood common school, Kingston Road, and Matthew Arnold. We lived for a short time at George Street then Rosefield Road. Over the years though all the family moved away, we used to meet up for family get to-gethers at The Swan Hotel. I have wonderful ...see more
My uncle & aunty (Ivor & Edna Cannan) lived in Maesy and as a school boy I spent many a happy holiday staying at 32 Pleasent View, which became Park Road. Most of the days were spent over the farm opposite playing with the farmer's son (Bruce) and my cousins (Gerald & Roy). It was in the late 50's when summer seemed to go on forever.
I was always included in the trip to Barry or Porthcawl with the ...see more
My mom lived in the shop at Shelf Roundabout but moved away to Bradford, I think when she met my dad.
When I was 8 my mom, now on her own, must have felt the pull back to Shelf and brought me and my sister, Linda to live on Car House Road. We moved a couple of times, once to Cheap Side, Shelf Moor, then to Burned Road just across from the post office.
I worked at Stump Cross garage near Shibden Park ...see more
I was astonished to see today in Google (Streetview) the name 'A.T. Roberts' on the fascia of a company building close to Bushey Station. I was a 16-year-old apprentice there in 1941, with Mr A T Roberts as my boss and teacher. At that time the building was simply three (it might have been two) small cottages knocked into one. It was full of overhead-belt-driven machinery, including two lathes, ...see more
Myself and my husband Tony were landlords of the Goats Head from July 1976 till October 1991. Memories of the Horn Dance, me and the barmaids dressed as serving wenches, also we had bar-b-ques in the garden and folk groups playing in the pub, also joining in with the dancers. Those's horns are very heavy to dance with, no wonder the men stop at every pub for a pint, great times, fond memories will be there this year 2012.
Started school at the wee primary, then Uphall and Broxburn Acadamy. It was a fab place to grow up in and have lots of memories of my years there.
Hi, moved to Gorton when I was 5 yrs old, lived on Berry Street in the shadow of St James church. Loved playing in the grave yard, cobbled street back yards, outside loo, them were the days. Went to St James school, had a friend called Robbert Dixon. Going to the pub with family, white packs of crisps and Belle View, great days, been back, what a change?
My memory of this is we all were in fancy dress and we did the maypole.
Hello, my gran, Margaret Kerr lived on Garronhill for years. She sadly passed away in 1982.
We holidayed there and she lived in the downstairs maisonette and we were only allowed as far as the bridge on the river Ayr to play. When tea was ready, she'd open the door and shout us in. In the morning we had sugar rolls. She had a big pantry with a built in marble piece, and a roaring fire.
Never ever did we visit and she never had a tin of home made toffee.
I miss those simple days x
Every year from 1968 to 1975 we used to make the annual pilgrimage from our home in Saddleworth near Huddersfield to the Casle Rock. In the early days, before the motorway was built, it used to take us two days with an overnight stay at Stroud, but boy was it worth it when you arrived; two weeks of sheer bliss. I went back in 1985 I think it was, and parked up, walked in and asked for a room, only to be told it was a nusing home.
One day I hope to return and see it as it is now.
Does anyone know anything about the history of River House, cottages etc. Elstead, pre-war?
I remember the millpool being used as a boating lake and being able to hire rowing boats, canadian style canoes and sailing dinghys.
Over the years the council reclaimed more and more of the millpool for use as a carpark and now there is only a fraction of it left and what was a nice big boating lake is now the main carpark for the town.
St. Andrew's Church behind the market place was a church where Princess Elizabeth, who became Queen Elizabeth the 1st often prayed. She sometimes lived at the old palace that became Pearsons and I was told that there at one time existed a tunnel between the Palace and the St. Andrew's Church.
It is reputed that Maiden's Bridge was the place where Sir Walter Raleigh laid down his cloak so the good ...see more
When I was around seven years old I was at a convalescence home called Oak Bank, in Seven Oaks Kent. Is it still there?

I am looking for any information regarding my family who lived in Railway Gardens, Stanley. Father: Thomas. Mother: Jane. Children: Cyllene, Jenny, Irene, Lawrence and Tommy. If any one has any information, please get in touch.
I delivered papers for Attwell's newsagents in the 1970's, and being an entrepreneurial child, did two paper rounds! The first one was from the Square along Monkton road, down Egbert Road, then the cul-de-sac end of Augustine Road and then through the gas works alley to deliver to all of Rose Gardens. The second round was the rest of Monkton Road more or less to the village boundary. I seem to ...see more
I remember having lovely holidays at the Carse Farm when I was a little girl. My gran's cousin was Jeannie Ross and I think her son was Donnie. There was also a lovely horse whom we called "Tony's horse". I remember walking in the nearby woods and roads and all one could hear was 'silence'. I would love to know if this farm still exists. It was a lovely place.
This is a westward looking view of Monkton Road and from what I can remember from my childhood, the building on the left with the bicycle outside was Danters fish & chip shop. Mr. & Mrs. Danter were very cheerful, friendly, Westcountry folk and their daughter Pauline sometimes helped out behind the counter. The building on the right with the hanging sign was (and still is) The Saddlers ...see more
I was very fortunate to spend my childhood in Lepe. My mother and father worked at the big house as housemaid and chauffeur to Lady Dilke, we lived on the grounds in the bungalow. We had 8 happy years there. I went to Exbury infant and junior school next to the church (now a private house). I still remember some of my friends names like Gwen Abrahams from Beulieu, Douglas Mansfield from Blackfield, Stewart Harding from ...see more
Or possibly 1968, I grew up in Manchester and the school I went to organised a few days away, staying with local families. Our teachers came too. Myself and a fellow pupil stayed in a beautiful bungalow in a country lane in Llanrwst. I remember the name of the couple we stayed with as a Mr and Mrs Cresswell. They were retired then, I often think about them even though it was 45 years ago.

Anyone who was there during that period, what are your memories of the Nuns, such as Sister Mathews, Peters, Cabrini and Gabriel also can anyone remember the name of the Master?

I was at the 1999 Football League Championship play-off final between Bolton Wanderers and Watford, played at Wembley Stadium on 31 May 1999. The match was won by Watford through goals from Nick Wright and Allan Smart. As a result, Watford who were "my" team, would play in the Premier League for the first time since its inception in 1992. It also meant that Watford had secured promotion ...see more
My mum's family, the Tame's, owned Shilla Mill during the war. In 1975 we stayed there over Easter for a family reunion.
Hi, I was born in 1953 in Beech Mount Hosptal. I had two sisters, Carolyn and Deborah and three brothers, Billy, Gary and Wayne. We lived on Queen's Rd and went to St Malachy's. I had my last year at St Edmund's, then onto Blessed Margaret Clithero's. I lived opposite The Alex's pub, I knew Ged and Julie Ironmonge. Also on Queen's Rd lived Michael and Ged Walsh, also the Robin Hood pub with Phillip Hynman, not ...see more
I remember going with my Grandma Setchel to the Corn Exchange and going and having a cup of tea in the cafe there, and also the toilets. I also remember Park St roundabout and the dentist there where I had my first tooth out. Just down the road, on the other side, was the Cock Inn and a couple buildings further was the Cattle Market. On the other side there was a fish and chip shop on the corner of the alley ...see more
I lived in the close from 1960 - 1981 when I married and moved away...not far, firstly to Carr Road, Northolt and then Ruislip where I have been since 1982. In the close I grew up with lots of friends like Gordon (Bubsy) Field, Norman Yoxall, Doug Gosling, Paul Woodwood and my best friend Clifford Thorn who sadly died when he was only a teenager. Memories of playing football under the street lamp at the top of the ...see more
Nigel Taylor - I attended Amport school 1968-74. I have lots of good memories: the ladies upstairs cooking the lunch, the dumb waiter bringing down the food, the warm milk on the door step, the village fete, Mrs. Charnock, Mr. Hiscock, Mrs. Hodges. I remember watching the Red Arrows fly over Amport House and the Razy bus taking us back to Quarley at the end of the day. Who doesn't remember Norman "Bogey" Reed, good time: please feel free to e-mail me ntaylor@carltonfields.com
I have enjoyed all the times being at Mr. Judges. I have enjoyed being around the family and dinner parties. Love from Ruby Marson
Two Clubs ran at The Kings Head - they were called Folkus & Folk Blues and Beyond. Later they moved to the Horse and Groom. Such guest singers were Sam Mitchell and John Martin. The room at the Kings Head was upstairs and nothing more than a large bedroom. There were no chairs, we stood or sat on the floor. It was sometimes hard to see the performers or anyone else come to that, due to the cigarette ...see more
