Stamford Hill Stamford Hill -- Mods, Music and Photos  

I'm doing some research into local history and wonder if anyone out there can help. I am looking especially for:
1. Stories, memories, photos about Mods in S. Hill (which was pretty much the birthplace of Mod)
2. Ditto -- and especially any photos -- about the R&B Record shop run by Rita and Benny King.
3. Photos (and memories) of Stamford Hill Mansions and Carlton Mansions in Holmleigh Road pre-1985.
If you can help do get in touch and I'll tell you more.

Stamford Hill  

Hello David Harris: I recall the era very well and remember your brother Malcolm. who married my wife's friend Pam Young who had twins. I see you live in Mauritius and I live with my wife and son, on the west coast of Florida. Don't know too many folks that live in Mauritius. I am sure it is a great place. Would love to chat more and I am sure my wife Gillian nee Morgenstern would love to correspond with her old friend Pam Young. It is a small world and I often write a small column,, My name is Philip Fleischer and my email is  Mail-me . Looking forward to hearing from you.

Stamford Hill Standford Hill 1924 - 1945  

Hi, these are all great stories from the "Hill" that I have heard all my life. Does anyone have information from the area between 1924 - 1945? That is when my father grew up there and has very fond memories of the area. He lived in Lower Clapton and attended Upton House, Sigdon Road and Farmer Road. He remembers the Regent and the Super. Does anyone remember the Baum Family, who owned the grocery about 1/4 of a mile down the Hill going towards Tottenham. My father was friends with Maury and Alex Baum. If anyone has information about them, please email me at  Mail-me . If you just have memories, please share with us.

Stamford Hill Stamford Hill 1939-67  

Crowland Road was my school from 1944-50. I rememember Miss Lloyd, Mr Lees. Friends Brian Ellis, David Epstein, Godfrey Leighton, Dougie Worman, Leonard Fertleman. Then went to Tottenham Grammar. Remember the old haunts you mention as well as the Rec and Springfield Park. Great times despite the War and rationing

Stamford Hill Stamford Hill 1939-67  

Hi Leon,
I clearly remember you and David, Godfrey and Leonard (but not Dougie Worman) from Crowland Road and Tottenham Grammar school. At that time I lived in Castlewood Road (until we moved away in 1962) and I believe that you lived in Leadale Road.
I came across Godfrey some years ago when he was in practice in Tottenham but then lost touch with him. I have not had any contact with David Epstein or Leonard Fertleman since we were at school.
I am still working and do not really see much prospect of being able to retire at present. Are you still working or have you retired?
I have recently been exchanging emails with Sonia Silver who was in our class at Crowland Road and you may remember her. Have you been in touch with anyone from our school days?

Stamford Hill SCHTAMFORD HILL !!!  

Hi all, my name is Gordon Daniel and I moved to "De hill" in 1952 from "Petticoat Lane " (Wentworth Street London E1)and found Paradise!!! Some many cinemas, Salt Beef sandwiches, Bowling Alley visits (Norman Wisdon was in there once) the schtip, haircuts on the corner shop opposite the REGENT Cinema, Egerton Road School (and Cheder classes in the evening) then later Victoria Club..all distant but pleasant memories. (I'm 67 now)
Later on went to UPTON HOUSE School and suffered there from some bad teaching practices...But, I made it later on. Married with 2 children and 2 grandchildren, I found my extended family back in Germany where my parents came from and in USA. Was in NYC on 9/11 and was booked for Brunch at 8.30am...didn't go thogh as my cousin had an upset stomach that morning!
Life saver in realtime!!!!!
Anybody remember me? I was quite good looking way back then! my email address is:  Mail-me

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 Hi Micky Jacobs RE- STAMFORD HILL BOYS  

Were you related to Gerald and Stephen Jacobs who lived in Wargrave avenue?
Their late parents were Pinkus and Anne Jacobs. Kindly let me know in another post on this website?
By the way, the last time I saw Simmons and Sugar was in Majorca in around 1966. Shortly after that I heard that Micky Simmons had emigrated to Australia and I have not heard from him since. He probably took his blue and white Lambretta Li with him!!! I don't know what ever happened to Peter Sugar but he had several family members that lived in Stamford Hill including his cousin Alan who you may remember hung out with him and a sister who was a hairdresser amongst many others. Some others in that group were Stewart Mason, Ginger Brian Stander and Michael Miskin and I do not know what happened to them either. Of course lots of water has gone under the bridge since that time and those that remain are now getting up there. However it would be good to find out what happened to everyone.

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.
