Born And Bred
I was born in Maidenhead in 1939 and as soon as I could read I pestered my mum to take me to the library. I can't imagine how many books I would have read from the shelves of this lovely old building. At first I was not impressed ...Read more

Nursery School 1943 50
I spent some classic country living in Ansley Common during the later war years. Walking home from nursery school I would often be ducking for cover under hedges as low flying fighter planes would scream overhead. The ...Read more

Early Days
I was born at home in Coleford Bridge Road in 1935 and grew up there, went to school in Frimley and lived in Mytchett until emigrating to Australia in 1964. In those early days life seemed very simple, only a handful of cars, making ...Read more

Childhood In The 1950s
Life for a child in the village of Worle in the 1950s was exciting, parochial and safe. Our parents did not lose sleep over thoughts of us being molested. Children were more likely to be in danger from their own recklessness ...Read more

Dancing
I so remember the Town Hall dances that used to be held on Saturday nights. Being able to go to a dance at age 14 was so grown up. Sometimes if we were feeling a bit naughty we would make our way to the Ben Riley dance hall which was ...Read more

The Undershaw Hotel
I remember having a very nice meal in the Undershaw sometime in the 1990's - it's a shame that it closed down around 2004. The house was built for Conan Doyle in 1897 and this is where he wrote "The Hound of the Baskervilles" ...Read more

Storrington never appears to have been very large, and far from being a centre of wealth, was probably no more prosperous than its neighbouring downland villages.
The Bishop of Winchester granted a weekly market here in the 13th century, and looking at this photograph of one of the village streets, little has changed since the mid 1950s.
This little town, on the Yorkshire/Lancashire border, has been famed for its potteries since Roman times. Coal mining and quarrying also sustained the population.

Like nearby Tiverton, Crediton did well out of the cloth trade, but when that declined the town stagnated.

Brynmawr was once the largest town in the rural county of Breconshire, but in 1974 it became part of industrial Gwent. The Red and White bus is probably a Bristol make.
At Hickling, where the Broadland waters fan into expansive shallows, there is a pleasing jumble of red tiled and thatched buildings clustering around the old Pleasure Boat Inn.

Garboldisham is steeped in ancient history: there is a defensive earth work here known as the Devil's Dyke, and a mound traditionally supposed to be the grave of Boudicca, Queen of the Iceni.
