Home From 1962 1974

A Memory of Old Burghclere.

This was my home from approximately 1962 to 1974. My parents ran the shop and the Post Office during this time. The days were very long as they ran the shop during the day and in the evenings they made deliveries to the local villagers. They opened every day of the week with half days on Wednesday and Sunday. The views from the back of the house looked over to the Hamble River and on a clear day you could see the Isle of Wight. It had a large garden.
