My Memories Of Wyddial A memory of Wyddial, Hertfordshire My father's people were from Wyddial, their name was Pinner. I was baptized at St. Giles, along with my sister. (My parents felt I should be old enough to remember this event). The dish in the font was cracked. I later stayed with my cousin Angela, she lived in Buntingford, her parents were from Aspenden. For the six weeks I was with her I worked for Mr Hodge, of Hodges Farm, Wyddial. My dad had worked for the same farm as a boy. I worked at the duck farm.

 Buntingford, High Street c1955 (ref: B245008) |
Year: 1900s
The Bell Hotel, Hare Street, Buntingford A memory of Buntingford, Hertfordshire I have recently discovered that my Great Grandfather John Main originally from Devon (a shoe maker) and then in Brixton, London as a Dairy Manager owned the Bell Hotel in Hare Street around 1905. My Grandmother lived there as a little girl and would often tell us stories as children about how it was haunted and about secret panels etc and of an old huntsman who would sit on the garden wall! I have several old postcards of it and the Street. He was still there in 1916 when my Grandmother married and I think on into the 1920s. I just wondered if The Bell was still there?

The Picketts Of Standon A memory of Standon, Hertfordshire The majority of my father's family lived in and around Standon from 1600 onwards and one of them was the Sexton of St. Mary's and another was the innkeeper of The Three Horseshoes at Farnham in 1881. My Grandfather was born in the Three Horsehoes. Does anyone have any connections with the Pickett family? Posted: 17/01/2007 13:18 by Angela Kenny |

 Bishop's Stortford, Coopers, formerly Maslens 2004 (ref: B104711k) |
Year: 1968
Coopers A memory of Bishop's Stortford, Hertfordshire I remember this building being Handscombes Ironmongers. And one end of it being a pram shop in the early 80's I think . I bought my parents their 25th wedding anniversary present in Handscombes... a dinner service in a Poppy design. Full service with tureens etc only cost £24.99! This was in 1978. They held their party at the Bell in Stanstead. Posted: 14/02/2008 23:41 by Sue Spooner |

A Good Time In Much Hadham A memory of Much Hadham, Hertfordshire I spent about one year in Much Hadham as German prisoner of war, 1946 till July 1947, working for the Hertfordshire War Agricultural Executice Committee; I specially was engaged in our camp labour office as clerk, under Mr. Wooley and later Mr. Smolenski, two wonderful men. We enjoyed already a lot of liberty, and I really loved this little village, which I visited once again in the late sixties, when I still discovered some remainders of one of our old Nissen huts! These months in Hertfordshire had an immense positive influence on all my further life, especially when I then worked in out of school civic education. Thank you, Much Hadham!
