I Lived Here

A Memory of West End.

I moved to West End in 1966. My family owned the Wheatsheaf from 1964 until about 1967 and my auntie still lived in West End so I often visit.
I was 11 in 1964 and my earliest memory of the village was seeing the Gordon Boys walking around the village in their uniforms of tartan trousers. navy military style tunics and little hats . They looked wonderful.
The village was always friendly and  I used to ride my bike or walk all over the place. I loved the smell of Fellowes Nursery(sadly now a housing estate) in the spring and the common full of heather & gorse.  It still is a nice village but has grown far too big!
