STREET PARTY- SOUTH ROAD 1945
South Road street party in August 1945
By John Hills
I remember when this picture was being taken, by the local Sussex Express & County Herald photographer, he tried every angle even standing on a chair, until finally a lady, who lived in one of the odd numbered houses, offered him a chance to take this picture from her first floor bedroom window which he duely did !
I am the little boy sucking his thumb, in the arms of Mary Collington towards the top left corner of the picture.
Are you old enough to remember how good the Fish & Chips were from Collingtons Fish Shop ?
