As a young irish lad I worked in matchwood power station in 1965 and I lived in digs in south street next door to the malt and hops pub the landlady name was Margaret a great landlady.
There was a big black lady called big rose who used to sing in the anchor and hope.
Hythe was a lovely place and I enjoyed living and working all around that area for a about 5 years. Many fond memories.
