Jobseeker In New Addington, 1977

A Memory of New Addington.

I'm sorely puzzled. The New Addington Hotel I saw in March 1977 had twin Dutch gables. And it was rather handsome.
Anyway, I then went on to a job interview in Vulcan Way (Holt's). "You get 45 minutes for lunch. We fetch in our own" How about the Hotel? "Any good with your fists, Mr Kingsbury?" In the event, no problem. Didn't get the job!

I lived in Wolsey Crescent and moved to Shirley at the age of 10, these photo`s bring it all back. Conscription had not long finished and saturday afternoon the old fashioned black maria was a regular here. Boys "letting off steam". The pub paid for returns and if you got through the fence in Montacute Road you could sell them back to them at the off licence. And the penny biscuits..
