We must have had the same playground, I and my friends Eric Adams and Victor Gillam, from the builders yard across the road from the war memorial , I lived at 109 Albion st, the Seamans Mission ,I remember it well, the docks , tug boat , and locks, I remember watching as they built the new larger lock, well boys would, it was like a magnet for a small boy like me,
I have been in that post office lots of times
How exciting to see this photo. In the early 1950s my nan had a sweet shop at 90 Albion Street (I think the building on left with drug sign). At around 1956 -57 my mum, dad, sister Trude and myself moved in. We built up the garden at the back where my father grew lovely flowers. My mum ran her marriage bureau in the shop (The Good Companions). I had the whole harbour, beach and canal as my playground along with Tony Strudwick, Tony Strevens and Chris Bunby. Aaah happy days!
