Growing Up In Penge (1947 Onwards)
I have said that my early life began in Penge in 1947, but that is only as far back as I can remember. Although I was still only two then, I do have a very good memory. I can remember while I was in a pram outside ...Read more

Whitegate is named for an old white gate which would once have marked the entrance to the former Vale Royal Abbey.
At the end of the Parade, behind the trees on the right, stands the Castle, the home of the Royal Yacht Squadron.
Two more were built after one another; the second was washed away by floods.This photograph, showing the castle walls and the dome of the Debtors' Prison, was taken from the fourth recorded bridge, which
Here we have another view of Prince's Corner on the right, with a glimpse of the High Street beyond the pseudo-timbering of The King's Arms (now The Fallow and Firkin).
Another major engineering feat on this scenic line is the rock cutting in the far headland. How things have changed at Carbis Bay - much of this scene has since been developed.
There was at one time another line down to Rawtenstall, joining what is now the East Lancashire Preserved Railway. As well as having three railway lines, the town also had three turnpike roads.
The staircases are designed in such a way that the floor of one is the roof of the other, and people using them do not see one another until they reach the top of the tower.
Another was built, and that too was a ruin for a number of years – it has since been restored.
A hilltop village on the southern edge of the Worth Forest with distant views of both the North and South Downs. St Leonard's church was built in 1895.
Brook's Cafe Restaurant is now The Bradford & Bingley Building Society. The horse is still supreme: it would be another three years before the first car made its appearance in town.
Both thrive to the present day. The first hotel, built about 1851, still stands to the east of the old railway station, and is used by British Rail as offices.
The building of Charles Church started in 1640 after Charles I gave permission for another parish to be created. Construction was suspended in the Civil War and completed in 1657.
Built in 1859, it replaced another from the 1700s which burnt down.
As we look down to the junction with Watling Street, on the left is the former W H Smith's shop, now offering haircuts!
Pleck Road through to Peel Street is just visible on the left of the photograph.
The bus shelter outside The White Lion (left) has gone, but this is still one of the main stops for Redditch-bound buses (The Bell - see A163350 on page 53 - is another).
This is another picture of Botley Square, with a good view of the Market Hall. It was built in 1848, and some fifty years later the clock turret and the Tuscan columns were added.
Windmills and watermills were often sited near to each other; the two very different power sources complemented one another where there was a total dependence on natural power sources.
When Victoria died in 1901 the population had increased to 47,000, thanks to the urban sprawl of nearby London and the many people who chose to settle in this attractive town upwind of the metropolis
The stretch of buildings on the other side of the station were once the original Company Shop (of the Rhymney Iron Company), which was set up and strictly run by Andrew Buchan - there was another similar
It became yet another of Northamptonshire's boot and shoe manufacturing towns in the later 19th century and was greatly enlarged, with streets of Victorian terrace housing.
After Neville was killed in battle, another Richard, the Duke of Gloucester, lived here before becoming King Richard III.
A new and bigger church was built on another site (see page 48).
