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.

Hi Michael, I was in Mr Mackley's class with you and also in Bodiam House. Lots of memories, Linda
Yes ... lots of good memories of Warnham Court. I would like to share these with friends from way back then. Linda
Happy memories of Warnham Court. I remember Bill & David Dundridge, Eric Cook, Margaret Hardy. I was in Mr Mackley's class, in the Cedar dorm and Bodium was my house. Would like to hear from anybody that was there during my time and remembers me.
Hello, my name is Andy Murfet. Thanks to this site I have just made contact with my school mate Martin Chapman, I am sure we will now stay in touch with each other. Martin has joged my memory with some other school mates, Rosemary White, another girl with the surname of Shaw, and a drama teacher with the surname of Jogo. BUT IF THERE IS ANYONE WHO WAS AT THE SCHOOL BETWEEN 1963-70 PLEASE GET IN TOUCH, ...see more
I too remember Ends Place from the early 1970s. The old Dear (how rude) as you put it was Mrs Gregson who did not suffer fools gladly but only ever showed me kindness and charm.

He motioned up around the corner. When we got off the bus, the church bells were ringing. We walked up to the church and a vicar let us in. When he learned of my Caryl ancestry, he gave us a special tour of ...see more
My surname is Warnham and am very interested to see how this relates with the village of Warnham. I wonder whether this is where my family originally resided all those years ago. Would be interested to know about gravestones and names of any Warnhams to see whether this could be the case. Thanks if anyone can assist I would be grateful.
I can remember visiting Warnham when I was very young, with my parents and brother Ron. We stayed with great uncle John, who was blind. I believe his wife's name was May, but I am not sure. My brother kicked a football into the broad beans, and upset great uncle John. I was rather frightened when we had to sleep in a room with a picture of Captain Blood on the wall, and so my mum turned the ...see more
