Nostalgic memories of Shootash's local history

Share your own memories of Shootash and read what others have said

For many years now, we've been inviting visitors to our web site to add their own memories to share their experiences of life as it was when the photographs in our archive were taken. From brief one-liners explaining a little bit more about the image depicted, to great, in-depth accounts of a childhood when things were rather different than today (and everything inbetween!). We've had many contributors recognising themselves or loved ones in our photographs.

Why not add your memory today and become part of our Memories Community to help others in the future delve back into their past.

Does anyone remember the Mowatt Family who used to live at Longdown, Salisbury Road, Shootash. I recall that Mr.Mowatt owned the fish market in Southampton. The daughter was called Peggy and she went on to marry Neville Dent, a race horse trainer. My grandfather, Ted Fislder, was the gardener at Longdown for the family. Love to have further info on this family if anyone remembers them. Thanks. Cynthia
