Highclere Self Build
A Memory of Sunninghill.
In 1960, Mick Turner and 8 other tradesmen purchased land behind the Sunninghill Post Office, called HighClere, where they drained the lake and built 9 bungalows. It took 3 years working every spare hour outside of their daytime jobs to complete the build. I was 11 when ours was completed and I moved into Highclere.
For 3 years every day after school, I delivered Pharmaceuticals for Blackburn’s chemist to many people in Sunninghill & surrounding area and in the mornings I did my paper round, from the beginning of Larch Avenue, out to the Cannon and then down the London Road thro the Marist Convent to complete the round....it was a long one, but the tips from some of these clients and famous celebrities at Christmas were superb for a 12 year old boy.
