Harlesden Caple road & Acton lane school  

Hi just searching for anyone who use to live in Caple rd or went to Acton lane school Harlesden between 1961 & 1967. Our family name is Hill and we are a large family of 7 children. My parents names are Edward & Joyce and we lived in Capel road until we moved to Church rd in 1967 till 1971. The wall at the bottom of our garden was the remains of the outdoor swimming pool which was bombed around 1946. We use to hang around with kids from Denbigh rd off Taylors lane. Our house in Church rd has since been demolished and turned into flats which I beleive are now being knocked down to make way to more new  Mail-me

Harlesden Harlesden is the best  

New superdrug, Tesco and subway. Parking in the high street being fixed and the chicken shops being replaced with better and better.

I have lived here for 10 years and have never seen so many improvments before. Really hope the place can keep its character after all the changes.

Harlesden Remember the old Ace Cafe?  

In the course of research for a book, I am interviewing people who frequented the Ace Cafe at Stonebridge Park between 1938 and 1969 and have interesting recollections of this 24 hour caff in its original guise.

Harlesden The trumping of the Ace  

My family was in the shelters opposite the Ace cafe
allongside the railway sidings during WW2 when the cafe was bombed & when the air raid was over
we left the shelters to go home to stonebridge but
there was an unexploded bomb alongside one of the arches so we had to find another route back home
via the canal towpath & Lower place.
Little did I know that I would be back in the Ace cafe
in 1956 with my own BSA A7 Twin.

It was an interesting time enjoyed by many of my
forgotten friends.

Think the shop was called Soundville up on the high street where Bim Sherman and Adrian Sherwood started great things like Creation Rebel. That was one cool shop. I used to get a copy of the reggae charts every week n sit and chill outside on the pavement on saturday afternoons.  Mail-me

Harlesden Bensteds Music  

Hi, I recently acquired a George Formby ukele banjo that belonged to my granndad or possibly great grandad and it has the address of the shop it came from as Bensteds, 22 Park Parade, Harlesden. I can find no mention on line and when I key in the address find that it is now a hairdressers. I just wondered if anyone knew at what point it ceased to be a music shop?

Post reply -->London Harlesden Bob 14 Mar

I grew up in harlesden and there wasn't a music shop in park parade in the sixties so presumably this instrument pre - dates that era

Post reply -->London Harlesden Christina 15 Sep

Harlesden  

Bensteads was a well known music shop in the 40,s and 50's and I bought several harmonicas( mouthorgans) there. They also sold many other musical instruments and sheet music. I think they ceased sometime in the 60's.

Harlesden Information sought re 4 Odessa Road, Harlesden in 1915/16  

I am trying to trace my paternal ancestry and am interested in No 4 Odessa Road where I believe my father James Arthur Grieve was born on 18 Nov 1915. His mother was a Margaret Grieve, but I have so far been unable to trace his father. Other people living at the address or at No 4a at the time were Alexander Johnstone, Mrs A M Dewar and John Hills. Does anyone know anything about these people and if they had any connection with Margaret Grieve or my father?
I would be very grateful for any information. My email address is  Mail-me

Harlesden dont be afraid!  

Hi

I've lived in Harlesden for around 18 months now. I can say that it's not better or worse than most of London, and it's reputation is (now) undeserved.

Hi, I got married and moved to Harlesden about 8 years ago. I've got two lovely children now and the area is not bad at all, a lot has changed for the better and people are quite friendly.

I guess generally speaking you have to be conscious of your own safety in and around London these days.

Harlesden HELP! Your views on the mobile shop!!!  

I am thinking of starting up a mobile shop. Maily aimed at the elderly or dissabled.
The concept behind the mobile shop is for basic nessecities such as toothpaste, bread, milk etc where people can't get to the shop or don't have the time.
My mobile shop is like a take-away. You ring up from a leaflet, give your order and within 15/20 minutes you have your goods. Theres nothing worse than settling down for the night and realising you have no milk or cigarettes or maybe you just want a couple of sweets and drink for the night?

I want to ask for your help. If you feel this is a good idea or not? would you use the mobile shop if it was up and running? If there's a process like this already out there? It's based for those living in HARLESDEN ONLY.

Please leave your views.
