Beach

A child's memories, 2003
By Parisse, aged 11 years and 10 months

My best place is the seafront, just by the Boardwalk, because that's normally where the merry-go-rounds are, though they haven't had them for a long time. It's a really nice bit of the beach, and it's fun to be there.

It reminds me of the things I used to do there when I was little, running on the beach, playing games with the waves.

In the 1930s my mum used to take me and my brothers and sisters to the beach once a year. We lived in Coombe Road and mum used to walk up Coombe Road, up Bear Road, along Tenantry Down Road, then all the way down Freshfield Road to the beach. We walked back home the same way. She was so poor she couldn't afford to use the tram.
