A Selection of Memories from Whittlesey
For many years now, we've been inviting visitors to our website to add their own memories to share their experiences of life as it was, prompted by the photographs in our archive. Here are some from Whittlesey
Sparked a Memory for you?
If this has sparked a memory, why not share it here?
Hi, does anyone reading this have memories of park lane school from the early 1970s? I was there around 73-75. We lived in Parkinson's lane . I'd love to hear from anyone
Am interested in the Simpson family. John Simpson died in the Workhouse in 1880 and his son Thomas also died there in 1901.
Would also like to know more about the man who designed the Workhouse, whom I believe to be called Fred Peck.
I started school here in 1961 and have recently returned to live in this area. I would love to contact others from this era to share memories.
I'm researching my family history and I'd like to know if anyone remembers the Knighton family who lived in Whittlesey. My great great grandfather Ernest Knighton, lived on 11a St Mary Street in 1943. His son, my great grandfather Tom Knighton, owned a lorry yard in King's Delph. I'd also like to know if anyone remembers a Samuel Knighton as a landlord of the Railway Inn on Station Road? He was Ernest's brother and would have been there in 1950.
