Post or Ask something here in 'Rotherhithe' Rotherhithe Photo of St Marys School, Lower Road 1839-198x?Do you have a photo of this old school? It was located at the corner of Lower Road and Culling Road. It stood for 140 years, and was demolished in the late 1980's to make room for the Rotherhithe roundabout. Early admission records for this school have recently been published by Ancestry.com, so there is great interest among family historians to find a decent photo of the venerable old landmark. The only image on the web is of the old Hippodrome Theatre wth a tiny glimpse of the old school in the background. Do you have a better photo that you'd be willing to share? Thanks!

Rotherhithe Jim & Winnie WhippsDoes anyone remember Jim and Winnie Whipps who lived at 88 Amos Estate? They had a son, Jimmy, and a daughter, Linda. Winnie (nee Meeks) was my mother's best friend from their school days at St Paul's School. Mum was born Lilian Rose Potter in 1912. Yesterday I was visiting the area and discovered The Rotherhithe Picture Research Library near St Mary's Church. Looking through wedding photographs I came across one of an un-named couple, instantly recognisable as Jim & Winnie. It would be good to give the Picture Library a bit of information to include with the photograph. Post reply -->London Rotherhithe Maureen Carroll 28 Aug Should we remove this post ? ^ Rotherhithe MOVED TO BRACKNELLHi Strangley, I think I know where you can find Jim; at Bracknell in Berkshire. I worked there for a number of years until last Christmas, and knew him as I recognised his Surrey Docks voice (my family come from the Tunnel end of Lower Road). Strange again, I pointed out that we were distantly related. Last year I gave hm a pair of white cotton gloves, as he was playing Santa for his grandchildren. I believe he said that he used to return for Christmas to Rotherhithe for family get togethers until recently? I think his wife/girl friend works at Sainsbury's in Princess Square in Bracknell too? Small world. Best to look up his name in the Bracknell or Ascot telephone book. Tell him Santa sent you. Ho,ho,ho!

Their name was Storey (Floss born 1916, Fred born 1923, Percy born 1925, Wyn born 1929, Doreen 1931, Stanley 1933) - they all went to St Paul's school too. My Mum remembers Winnie Meeks and also the Moore and Wardell families. I still live in SE London so I'd be really interested in the info you found out that I could research further at the Rotherhithe Research Library.
