More about this scene

We moved to the Grove in North Cray from Edgebury Chislehurst in 1965.
I went to the Boys side of Alma Rd School in 966 and later to Bexley Lane School.
I have mixed emotions of attending Bexley Lane school, (now Cleave Park School) most were ones of dislike, I was bullied terribly and nothing was done about it. In fact the Civics and Business studies teacher clearly condoned it, letting other lads lay me onto ...see more
