Stanford 1955 1965

A Memory of Stanford-le-Hope.

Hello George

I lived in Stanford 1947-1971. The house opposite the church was where Dr. Morris lived, I believe. The surgery was round the corner in what felt like old stables. It was a fine house but was later purchased by a pub chain, I am not sure what it is now.
I do not recall the site you mention prior to 1960 when Lloyds bank had a branch built there.
I lived in King Edward Road down Wharf Road and used to enjoy playing and dog walking on the route to Mucking and the gravel pit area. Also watching the huge steam engines pulling large tanker trains from Shell Haven.
