Village Life
A Memory of Steventon.
We first lived in White Cottages, when I was about 2, my dad Des Brown worked as a dairyman on the farm, and my mother Audrey cleaned for a Mrs Henshaw. When I was 4/5 we moved up the road to 3 Wheatley Close, next door to Mrs Bond and Mrs Ayres, and went to the village school, the head was Mrs Tanner, she had a dog called Lucky. My teacher was Mrs Haycock, she would pick me up from my gate and take me to school, as I didn't want to go, I preferred playing in the fields, or helping my dad on the farm. I remember coming back from a Christmas party one evening, and Teddy Ayres said that there were big holes under the tunnel (they were puddles really) and I wouldn't go under, my dad had to carry me, the tunnel was pitch black in those days.
