Western Road

I was born off Lewis Road, so knew the area well. Cyril Maidment also had a brother Brian who raced to, although he quit the sport early, I used to go to Wimbledon every Monday evening to watch them. I attended Western Road school between 1959 and 1963....davecabot@hotmail.com

So pleased to have found this site.Have such wonderful memories of Mitcham I was born in Mitcham lived in Seaton Road all my childhood.I also remember the Maidments+the Rondeau families as my father's family lived in Fountain Road (the Lay family)my father was Charlie.and I use to play there with my cousins Roy +Danny Rogers.My daughter use to work Saturdays for Reg Wisby when he had his shop next to Tesco in London Road.As I said I lived in Seaton road with my parents Charlie+Ethel Lay + g/mother Ginny Allen.Many of my mother's family lived in (and some still do )New Close. Went to Star school+Western Road school left in 1962.Would love to hear from anyone who may remember me .Especially Joy Luby+David Taylor who lived in Glebe Court.Have been back to visit family in the past but not recently as I now live in Dorset but was sad to see how much it had changed,or was it our childhood memories that made it seem so good there??.I don't think so I really loved it there .Theresa Jackson (nee Lay)
