Brian Goodliffe, July 2008
In the last few years, I have recorded my childhood memories of Trumpington in the 1940s and 1950s. The family moved to Trumpington in 1946 and we lived in Grantchester Road, with my father working on the Pemberton estate. I went to school at the Church School and Fawcett School. My recollections are in nine parts:
