up the junction: A memory of Clapham

Up The Junction

A Memory of Clapham.

Harbut Road, that is where I was born in 1960. I had a great childhood, me my sis and brother, Sat morning pics, Clapham Common and of course up the junction! and Joseph Tritton Primary School, happy days.

We lived in Harbut Road from 1958 ish up until 1964. Your post reminded me of my own childhood doing exactly the same things. Loved going to Arding & Hobbs to see Father Christmas. Remember the space ship one year and the swan another year? I too went to Joseph Tritton. And yes, Granada of a Saturday. Wonderful memories!

We moved to Harbut Road in 1957 and I was at Joseph Tritton School from then until 1959.
I too have good memories of going to the Granada and of shopping in Arding & Hobbs and Northcote Road Market. i remember neighbours' outraged reaction to Nell Dunn's 'Up the Junction'.
