A Selection of Memories from Rolleston on Dove
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 Rolleston on Dove
Sparked a Memory for you?
If this has sparked a memory, why not share it here?
I lived by the brook as a child and spent time catching sticklebacks which I then brought in to watch TV! The brook used to regularly flood the cottages at ground floor level. But recall many happy times in the village and at the village school.
1969, I visited my great aunt Vi and great uncle Frank at the Smithy House. His anvil is in the center of town. Frank Topley, the last village blacksmith.
My mother was taken from Tamworth to Rolleston by her Grannie (nee Maria Pegg) for a holiday in a cottage. My mother remembers that the man in the cottage was a brewery worker. He used to bring black stuff like sweets for them to eat. Mum would have been 7 or 8 as she wrote a letter to her mum. We don't know who this man was but could have been a brother.
