Ferndale And Cowplain
A Memory of Waterlooville.
My wife and I had a new house built in Ferndale just off the Hulbert Road in 1959. Detached semi bungalow with three bedrooms and a garden backing on to Inhurst Woods and all for £3500. My goodness, how different for the younger generation today. I only needed £175 deposit for the mortgage. I worked for Wadhams who were the biggest employer in the area for a modest salary with the BMC car dealership and the coachworks specialising in ambulances. I would love to hear from anyone who worked for Wadhams between 1959 and 1964, or who lived in Ferndale
Both our sons were born there and my memsahib of 53 years and I have great memories of the village. I lived there before marriage and lodged with Ernie and Sheila Saville in Morley Crescent Cowplain, and spent most of my hard earned money in the Cowplain Sports and Social Club.
