Reconnecting with our shared local history.
For many years now, we've been inviting visitors to our web site to add their own memories to share their experiences of life as it was when the photographs in our archive were taken.

We've had many contributors recognising themselves or loved ones in our photographs.

The Caprice was a rather cool place to hang out back in the 60's. I have no idea what at first attracted myself and my 'best friend' Jean Jones to hang out there. I think her older sister Shirley may have told us about it. We were somewhat fascinated by the 'rockers', and their motorbikes. These were usually parked across the road, next to 'Jack's Cafe', the public toilets and a police box. We gradually learned the ...see more

Does anyone remember Burtons motor accessories in Church Rd Caversham?
When I had my first car, a 1934 Standard Nine I was always in the shop buying parts for it. Also for my following motors, A35, Austin Healey and MG Midget they always needed something, a battery, brake parts, oil, filters, hoses, antifreeze etc those were the days you did it yourself. I am still doing the same on my current MG a 1952 MG TD. Sadly not many shops around now like Mr Burtons
Does any one remember the summer of 1961 in the park. In July 1961 the temperature reached 31 deg c. Hanging out by the lake. The sounds of bowls. The sounds of tennis. Ted the park keeper. When you entered the park it seemed you were entering another a world, a tranquil world. No M4. Beautiful summer evenings! Youth. Nice people, Jean, Susan, Dina, Lesley, and Graham. Lovely clean park, nothing to ...see more
Leytonstone was such a lovely high road, lovely cafes, cinemas , bowling alley, but what is driving me a bit nuts is trying to find out the name of 2 shops that where there, tha first one was what is the left side of Boots the chemist now.

My granddad, Frank White (and later, my dad, Roy White) had a shoe repair shop for about 40 years, until the late 60s, on Western Parade.

It was actually one shop split in two, with Parrs the mens' hairdressers in the other half (beneath the darker fascia).
We lived in the top flat (number 10B) ...see more

I was photographed as a child on a float in the carnival sometime in the early 1960s. I think I was dressed as a blackbird from the pie.
I stumbled across your article and it brought back happy childhood memories. Like you I also lived in Hertford Road Barking up until the summer of 1970 when we moved to Fairlop. Our homes were compulsory purchased by the Department of Transport for the development of the A406. My parents moved in to Hertford Road in 1953, but my memories are only from the mid 1960’s. We lived towards ...see more
My grandfather owned the esso garage and my step nan ran the corner shop in Blackboys through the late 1950 s until my grandfather died. They built their own bungalow behind the garage which I think is still there? They had two grumpy , pekenise dogs that my grandad adored.
I grew up here in the 50's and 60's and went to Belleville Road school and two of my uncles [Bill and Bob Bridges] used to have fruit stalls in the market. I have fond memories of that time and was wondering if anybody remembers me or my uncles from that time. John Lloyd

Hi everyone, I am posting on here to see if anyone remembers my Mum, she went to St Oswalds in I expect the mid 1940’s to perhaps start of the 1950’s, before then going to Monkseaton Secondary School in Whitley Bay in the 1950’s.

She was born in Oct 1941 (which would have made her 75-76 now)

Thank you for the fantastic memory's you've brought back to me. Very innocent days and great fun. I do remember a lot of the names mentioned especially Alan Dutton which who I met three years ago near to where I live. I have also been in contact with David Embleton a few years ago. Dave Smith did you ever become a train driver as you always said that is what you wanted to be. Thanks for the great memories but sad to see how Hounslow is today.

I was at Highlands between 1966-1970, and have very warm and happy memories of the school. I was Janet Anderson back then. Mrs. Peach was Headmistress, she was a wonderful lady. I started in the first form, worked up to the third form, then jumped to the middle fourth (I think it was called). My favourite teacher was Mrs. Swanborough. I remember friends Kim Walking and Lyndsey Jones. ...see more

Hello Gary, we live up the road from your mother Sheila at Hall Lands. My memory is of Mortimer's Lane as a very narrow winding sunken lane. I used to ride next door's pony and was always nervous of meeting traffic at the top of Mortimer's Hill. My children Nicki, Steve, Alice and Frankie Copseywent to Wyvern school but they are a bit younger than you. How Fair Oak has grown and is now threatened with even more houses. Oh dear .
My first job working in grocery joining the first cut price supermarket of its time giving green shield stamps , and the big flood in Mill street in1960-61 does anyone remember this . Terry Moore from Kidderminster. This store was between Noakes furniture shop and Prices the prom shop then Buyright Ltd then the old Grand picture house.
I was born in 1939 at 28 St.Anthonys Avenue, off St.Barnabus Road. I remembered the Anderson shelter in our back garden only vaguely as I was evacuated to North Wales with Janet Jenkins, and Brenda Hart. After the war, I went to St.Marys Convent in Woodford Wells, and walked daily along the path that bordered the high wall around Harts Hospital. The wall was topped with broken glass, and for some reason ...see more
I remember in the early fifties two coaches visited Studley Grange Road. The first was promoting KNORR SOUP. Children were allowed into the coach and given a cup of KNORR SOUP in a little plastic cup with the word KNORR on the outside in red. I had green pea soup, it tasted great and I went home to tell my mum. The result was that she bought some packets. Mushroom and Green Pea were my ...see more
My Grandfather and Grandmother, Mary and Charles Warner lived at a house called 'Old Trunk' in Cove, until 1925. I am not sure if this was 'Old Trunk Farm' as it was just a house, with no outbuildings as far as I can see from the one photo I have.
Their children had to go under a bridge to get to school, so the story goes. The bridge sometimes flooded.
I believe the house belonged to the Army - Charles was an ...see more
I worked for the LBE at the Greenford Depot from 1971-2000 and i used to have my dinner in the Red Lion which was just up the road from the depot.

He was an extremely pleasant man, not full of ...see more

I often wonder about friends I knew in Studley Grange Road. Terence White at no 72. Peter Dawson whose mum and dad owned the shop and ran a mobile shop that used to serve Northolt. Christopher Barnes whose dad grew cactus in a greenhouse and had the large Mecano set in a wooden case. June Bride and Janet Pilkington from the bottom of the road. This was in the fifties. They all went to St Marks school.
A family home in Fernwood Avenue and education of sorts at St Joseph's College, New Park Road and Dulwich, saw me through to the late 50s. Dave Carey of the Swing Shop became a big influence and I joined various local bands with Trevor Swale, Pete Holmes, Tony Levy, Fred Ling, Colin Stevens and others before turning pro and eventually leading bands in Germany, on Ships and in various Clubs, Pubs and ...see more
Every July, the houses with tennis courts in the garden hosted a tournament (don't know who organised it). I remember turning up one year full of enthusiasm, only to be thoroughly beaten by a chap who had been playing in a tournament in Vienna the year before! Enjoyed the dance afterwards at the Grange and Links though.
My parents had a caravan on Bohemia for all of the 60s. I spent all of every summer holiday there, and even had a temporary library ticket. No mobiles - we walked to the nearest phone box to call anyone. I made a lot of friends, both from the site and local. Hope their memories are as happy as mine.
Does anybody remember my family. ..leach no 42..Also my auntie agnes smith no 37
During the years 1960 to 1967, aged 4 thru 11, this was my playground, as well as the Devonshire Park behind to the left.

I lived in Stanwell in the1950's from the time I was born until I was 13 when we moved to Ashford. We lived is Selwood Gardens, near to the Iraqi estate. The Iraqi estate was mystery to us. There were always swarthy gentlemen driving Rolls Royces - at a time when no one else had a car. After King Faisal was killed, the wonderful old mansion went to ruin and became a gravel pit. ...see more
My dad was an apprentice instructor at Crewe works. He worked there from it opening in the 1950s until it closed in the 70s. He was a fitter, and I have read various recollections of him.

And the shops at Sunbury cross , I think there was a wool shop that sold little cheap gifts that I bought my mum on Mother's Day & birthday out of my ...see more
Poor standard of education. Teachers going through the motions. No interest or comittment. These are the memories I have. Many old pupils recall the crushing corporal punishment. Cane administered on the hands, chalk thrown at you. One teacher actually chalked the cane so it would leave a mark on your trousers so he could cause maximum pain by hitting you in the same place. Ears pulled etc.
I remember the Magilla, down the lane past the Hall on the left and the village dump on the right. Main thing I remember was there was just a few houses...a long terrace I think...and several caravans. The children who came to the primary school, down the Baulk, were considered 'poor' and not too 'successful'...attitudes that were all too common in the 1950s, to our shame...

My Farther owned Tomlinson's store and I grew up working there with my sister all through the war.
I started at Fairfield's Infant School as a 5 year old in 1958. I think my teacher was a Mrs Spicer, and I was always thankful it wasn't Miss Mole, who was a 'terror'.

I later attended the junior ...see more

I was at Woodruff School from 1951 to 1955. In 1955 we went on a school trip to London by BEA Vickers Viscount from Elmdon (Birmingham) Airport. It was a wonderful experience for an 8 year old. I have a group photo taken in Trafalgar Square feeding the pigeons, and would love to share it, but would appear unable to do so on this site.
My memory of Sir Freds, was in the 50s with Boss Green as head master, Gunner Meadows, Messers, Rodgerson, Birket, Conniff, Dier, Firth, and Franky Lane among others. I remember that playground fights, where taken to the Crush Hall and sorted out properly, with boxing gloves on and a ref, with prefects as seconds.
I can remember this incident so clearly, the grief my Mother and Father felt , Many tears .

I was born at Gate Burton March 1943. My mother was evacuated from Hull.
My parents lived in Rookwood Close from 1966 to 1972. I remember playing in the woods behind the houses and discovering what looked like a railway tunnel going under the hill. I was able to venture in 20 feet or so but the entrance was blocked by iron bars. Does anyone know what this tinnel was for? My father seems to think that before the houses were built there was a quarry there. Cheers Perce
