@BramfordHistory What a fantastic story. As a Bramford ite from 1934, I can’t ever recall “parsonage Barn”. Was it “Bramford hall” by any chance ? 1600s wow !!!
@BramfordHistory The Shepherd’s ring a bell with me but, can’t say I knew them or where they lived but again, mentioned on that same page is, Derrick hill. Now I know the Hill’s of Flowton {excuse the pun} didn’t they live up a cart track off Tye lane. Leading to the back of Flowton !! .
The cock inn, in the late 50s & 60s was Landlord was Lotte & Fred Page, and the angel inn, Eva & Frank Partridge. The Royal Oak. Landlord was Fred James. A great village inthose days.
@Uncruliar@zythophiliac@patto1ro They merged in 1957. Our oldest pub - The Cock was a Cobbold pub. The Angel - at the other end of The Street was a Tollemache pub
@BramfordHistory Lovely picture. Actually before my time, would you believe !!! I use to walk passed that hall, to and from School, as lived at Bramford Tye.
@TonyTonysabout We think the timber framed cottage on the left was demolished first - probably not long after the photo was taken. The other row - called Well Cottages (as pictured below) survived until the 1960's.
@BramfordHistory Brilliant, I can vaguely remember those demolished houses, weren’t they pulled down about the same time as Bramford county modern school was built and Duckermere. Date ? Ive not a clue !!! 🙄
!!!!!! 🤭
@BramfordHistory Just might be able to have-at-a-guess, at just one boys name, Pryke, 6th from left, standing, with white open neck shirt. There is a couple of girls I know faces of but can’t name them, one being the girl in the front row, kneeling with a white dress. Thanks for sharing . Tony.
@BeverleyDFisher@BramfordHistory Beverley, I dunno how old I was in the photo, I’d say at a guess, about. 8 or 9 but I was born November 1934, so will be. 86 this year, hope this help you in some way, Tony.
@BeverleyDFisher@BramfordHistory Beverley. I knew your Dad David but only as a young boy. I was a regular user of the Angel and obviously knew Your dads dad & mum, Frank & Eva. Please get in touch if I can help you further !! Tony.
@BramfordHistory Hi, thanks again for your reply. Yes I can name names but as they are placed all over the photo, I would find it easier if we could do a meet, so as I then can say, this is so-and-so, and so on ! I’d love to help. I think {but not sure} it’s to do with the Jubilee. Tony.
