Granny's House
A Memory of Waterrow.
My granny was Gladys Webber who lived in Waterrow for most of her life. I lived there with her till 1953 but after that spent most weekends and school holidays with her. They lived opposite the Rock Inn and at Bovey Cottages next door to the Greenslades and for years Trevor was my best friend.
I remember being taken to the Rock Inn as a child and sitting outside on a wooden bench with a packet of crisps and a lemonade while the grown-ups were inside.
Granny used to take me to church and I loved Sunday School.
Mrs Gregory's shop on the corner that smelt so lovely and her kindness in always finding a loose sweet to give me.
Saturday night dances in the hall.
The fete in the summer.
Catching a train from Venn Cross station.
Picking primroses with aunty Edie.
So many things.
