Nostalgic memories of Deeping St James's local history

Share your own memories of Deeping St James and read what others have said

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. From brief one-liners explaining a little bit more about the image depicted, to great, in-depth accounts of a childhood when things were rather different than today (and everything inbetween!). We've had many contributors recognising themselves or loved ones in our photographs.

Why not add your memory today and become part of our Memories Community to help others in the future delve back into their past.

I remember you, Deeping St James, I remember too a lady called Ethel Fennel, the orchard at gran's house, being late for mass and having to sit in the dock, the wind howling down Church Street late at night (spooky).
Dear Deeping St James, I am not a native of Deeping but my grandfather was born there in 1876. His family name was Bilton. His father was James and the family lived at Deeping Gate in or near the village. I was wondering if there are any Biltons still in the village. My husband and I are planning to visit the village very early in the New Year. He is also descended from the Bilton family. Regards, Glynis Jones
The Waterton Arms, in Church Street, used to be owned and run by Mary Elizabeth Mulligan. Her grandson Andrew Robert owned the house next door and the Pharmacy attached.
