Guildford from St Catherine's


I have very happy memories of St Catherine's. In the summer holidays my Grandmother and I would walk to St Catherine's. The reward a drink from the spring there, Gran would pack in her bag a small plastic beaker. It had red and white spots and would gently bend down and capture the water being careful to not capture any of the sand. We would have a drink and enjoy a rest on a seat before walking back to home.

I don't know if this is a view I remember, but I am sure that it is one that my Grandmother would have seen many times.

Lords Hill, Shamley Green circa 1909


This was such an unusual postcard that despite being in a slightly worse for ware state, I had to purchase it and ad to the collection.
