High Street
Photo by Tony Mould
From 1940 to 1964 I lived at what was 27 High Street and is now numbered 28. The apparent arch door way by the parking sign was number 26 and was a garage with a large room above that was in fact part of and joined to 27. During the war my family also had what was 30 and also the Little Globe pub. We had many sailors who were training to be telegraphists at the old tech., billeted on us and several Canadians and Americans used to visit the pub. My iddle sister in fact married a Canadian soldier who stayed in this country after the war. There was very tragic accident when an Americian soldier fell from one of the upper windows of the Little Globe and broke his spine and was paralysed.
