1940s · Warren Farm Road

The Home and Colonial, off-ration eggs and a club built by whip-round

told by Harry Felton

War YearsCommunity

I remember the Home and Colonial and queuing up there for eggs that were off ration I think they named them ‘off priority’ and we were allowed 6. My uncle Bill Hall was a founder member at the Warren Farm ex service,I remember a collector calling around our house to collect half a crown a week to build the first club with the entry in Danesbury Crescent. Uncle Bill also served in North Africa.
