Holte Road
Hi,
I lived in Holte road till I got married and moved on. We lived at 72, and our nieghbours were the Chances. Opposite there was Mr Maggs little old shop, and others I can remember were, Mrs Nevilles outdoor, she would
sell you one cigarete. On the corner it was Mrs Butriss green grocers. at the top of the road was a shop called Brians, it was a shop that sold everything you could think of,he ran it with 2 of his aunties. Then just up from him was Mrs cooks green grocers. Oh I think there was another outdoor the other side of Brians, I used to go and get mom her sherry out of the wooden barrels.
Names I recall were,
Mrs Eynon Mrs Wingate Mrs Hawkes Mrs Shuck Mrs Payne
Mrs Redding
Mrs Lyndon
Mrs Reid
Mrs Mackie
Mrs Dare I could go on but I wont. Our name was Jones by the way, Dad Thomas and mom Ethel, me Pat and my sister Sandra.
I got these photo's off her yesterday thought someone might remember.
