The Forties

A Memory of Staplehurst.

My Dad was a gardener at Iden Old Manor which was owned by the Walmsley family. I went to school in the village, the only names I can remember are Victor Springate and the Murray family. My first bicycle was purchased from the shop near the school.Ialso remember the day the doodlebug fell in the village, great excitement for the kids ,not so for their parents. The Americans were at the airfield near the village and we kids were always on the cadge for sweets and gum. Just in case anyone remembers me my maiden name was Ann Carey.
