Stamford Hill Stamford Hill  

Does anyone remrmber a lady who used to walk around the Hill wearing a rain coat & motor cycle goggles? She would often mumble to herself. This was in the early 60s. I lived on Leadale Road & went to Craven Park school then to Brooke House. I remember most of the places mentioned & am still an avid Spurs supporter. What great days those were. Anyone from my time, be good to hear from you. My name's Dave.

Stamford Hill Stamford Hill cinema memories  

Hello,

I am looking for people who have memories of going to the cinema in Stamford Hill (or elsewhere in London) in the 1930s and 40s to include in my MA dissertation. Whether you went to luxury cinemas like the Regent, the local 'flea pit' or both, I'd love to hear from you.

I went to craven park school when I lived in leaview house springfield park. and then when I was 9 I lived in riverside road
what great days they were, there was my friend ron davis that I went to crowland road school with and also to crowland road shull with do you remember rabbi cohen he taught hebrew and used to spit as he talked to you .
then there was the shtip house where we all used to go on a sunday after I helped my dad down the lane it was a ritual , do you remember phil and bill who used to own the shtip and his daughter , and after that we went to the super or regent and then there was stamford hill club

Stamford Hill  

My name is Peter Mendel
I was club captain at the club 1956/57 I certainly remember many of the names listed but my personal friends at that time were David Deitsch,Martin Portman,Irvine Toffel and many others over the course of time have been forgotten. Yes they were good times at the club but I would not change them for the times I have now,in my very late 60s.We all tend to look back and see those days with rose coloured glasses but the reality is, that apart from the evenings at the club they were very hard times and best kept for pleasant memories.

Stamford Hill Great Site...  

Have just discovered the Stamford Hill site. It's just wonderful. I was born and bred here. 101 Wargrave Avenue - and went to school at Crowland Road. Discovered the "Hill" when I was 15 - 1951 - and made very many friends..including little Moishe...Harry Lee...Henry Sellers... Mitch...Butch...Maurice Spiro. My two closest buddies were Lennie Duke and Keith Martin..We would go every MOnday evening to the Downbeat jazz club - and each week to the West End..Empire Rooms, etc. Loved the E&A bar...The REgent and Super Cinemas...and if I'm not wrong one ofthe first coffee bars opened there - almost opposite the Regent. So many happy, happy memories...strolls in Springfield Park (particularly during the Jewish holidays)..walks to Clapton Common (looking for a "mate")...down to Stoke Newington to meet up with other pals. Oh why have those days vanished! Now..I've been married 48 years with two kids of 38 and 41 respectively and, now two grandchildren. Happy days. Glad to "chat" wi

Stamford Hill  

Hello there,
Lovely to read your text :-)
Have you always been living in Stamford Hill? The area must have changed enormously in the last decades!
I actually love the creative Stoke Newington area with the wonderful Clissold park to go for a relaxing walk and having a nice cuppa in the charming old park coffee **
Look forward to warm temperatures and sunny days:-)
------- sunny smiles to you all ------

Stamford Hill Changes  

No, I left Stamford Hill a year os so after marryhing around 1963. Moved to Palmers Green and then - just 5 years ago - to Enfield. Which is where I now live. "The Hill" was wonderful during the fifties. User-friendly. A kind of cameraderie that simply doesn't appear to exist today. The memories - and there are hundreds of them - will live with me for the rest of my life.

Stamford Hill THE HILL BOYS  

Hi Philip

Really sorry not to have been in touch. Pleased that you made contact with J Waterman. Hope he is in good health and the next time you have contact with him and his wife Doreen, please send our best wishes from myself and my wife Ruth. He still owes me a phone call.

Re the snow. My wife and I were in Spain for the month of January and luckily missed it all.

Your salt beef sounds good but we try and stay away from red meat these days. If we do get to Florida will certainly bring you some Colmans Mustard!

Nice corresponding with you and look forward to future contact to reminisce. My e-mail address is  Mail-me

Stamford Hill Anyone from Skinners, 1959-1961?  

Hi,
I was at Skinners in those years in the Vth form, just in time to take GCE. It was a difficult time for me but I have fond memories of the young women who went to Skinners'; of the Chabad house for kosher meals; the Regent Cinema; Egerton Road Shul, Springfield Park and Springfield Park Shul on the corner of Moresby and Upper Clapton Roads. I'm trying to find old photos of Oldhill street from that time or earlier, as well as hearing from any "Old Girls" who remember me, Madeleine Goldstein, the so-called "American."  Mail-me

Stamford Hill  

Hi all the good people that went to Northwold Road School. It seems nobody on this list has come from there. I clearly remember coming from that miserable wicked school and can still show the scares from the cane even had my name in the black book. Hope somebody remembers Mrs. Reeder's sweet shop where you could buy a sherbert licorice pack, that could choke you in one suck or delicious half penny split cream bun from the bakers opposite. Not great times but I promise I will not tell on any of the bycycle shed happenings as I put it down to experience not of the three r's . Anybody out there that may know me my name is Philip Fleischer started as a hairdresser and then drove a black cab. Lived in edgware worked the airport and sold shoes from my cab. Hope there si a few guys from stamford hill that remember me from my weightlifting days at the tottenham gym . olease give me a bell.
