Mum, towards the end of the war did night work at Enfield Cable canteen, Brimsdown about a mile away. She cooked meals for the night workers. We recall her saying that one early morning when she was cycling home she saw a parachute mine floating in the sky, fortunately, too far away to cause her any harm. A parachute mine fell in Willow road (Enfield) and a number of people including air raid wardens were killed. Nos 293, 295, were demolished and rebuilt. Our brother Peter and his wife Jeanne later lived at No 293. At some point, a Morrison shelter was erected in the house and that gave a lot more comfort. During our intervals at home between evacuations life went on as normally as possible. School was at St Joseph’s, Waltham Cross, where the school hall was heavily sand bagged to provide emergency shelter. One of the daily highlights was the collection of shrapnel - usually on the way to school - which entailed walking along with one foot in the gutter, gathering the jagged and highly treasured lumps, later swapped at school. Great Cambridge Road - a shared-use path runs parallel to the A10 Great Cambridge Road. To the north, the path carries cyclists towards Waltham Cross. To the south, the route passes through Enfield Town and Tottenham, via the Great Cambridge Junction.

After the pounding taken in and near Ashton Road, it is perhaps appropriate that Ferndale Road joined them in their celebrations. On another occasion during the Doodle Bug saga (V1’s) we stood on the doorstep around mid-day, and watched and heard one approaching. The engine cut out and it fell, apparently directly towards us. It actually hit a local school (Chesterfield Road) during the lunch hour, the children had just gone home. There was a tremendous explosion which broke most of the glass in our house, and took the roof off. Our mum (Olive) was home at the time and escaped with some cuts to her face from flying glass. We were unhurt apart from minor cuts. Our aunt, Mrs Baker - who lived next door had been in Ordnance Road at the time and arrived home pushing a pram full of dust and rubble - and her son Christopher. Our house was uninhabitable for some weeks, and we all slept in the public shelter at the end of Malvern Road with 30/40 others similarly afflicted. Illustration 4. Among the weapons manufactured at the RSAF were the Snider rifle of 1871, the Martini-Henry rifle of 1875 and the Lee-Enfield magazine rifle mark 1 of 1916. The mark 4 model of 1943 is still in use around the world today. All the weapons on display have been made inoperable. Oleksandr turned up on time and did a fantastic job in an efficient and friendly manner. We would certainly recommend him."Mills. A. D.

It is a sad fact, that businesses are an easy target for thieves because they are unmanned at night time.Dad lit a celebratory evening bonfire in Ferndale Road, outside our house (there was no passing traffic), and chairs were brought out for family and neighbours to join in the celebrations. Dad’s wireless set (a Murphy - 3ft tall) was moved to the front porch to keep family and passing neighbours up to date with information; Churchill’s speeches and general rejoicing. There was a great spirit among neighbours during wartime.

One of our ‘nice little earners’ at that time was to collect bark and wood off-cuts from the local sawmill and sell it around the neighbours. A popular ‘war game’ was to climb to the top of the cherry tree outside the house in Ferndale Road, and spot approaching aircraft. The sight of a V1 (Doodle Bug) always provoked a very rapid descent! During peak hours, the station is served by an additional hourly service between Stratford and Hertford East. Due to the extra services, normal Liverpool Street-Hertford East trains now run non-stop from this station to Chesunt; omitting Waltham Cross.

There is free parking available in our car park at the RSA Island Centre as well as free parking around Enfield Island Village should our car park be full. We are located just off of Mollison Avenue, a short distance from J25 of the M25. Please note that unless pre arranged we are unable to offer large coach parking facilities. Illustration 2. Machinery in the machine shop was driven by two 40 horsepower steam engines. The 1853 pattern Enfield rifle went into large scale production in 1857 and by 1860 1,700 men were producing 90,000 small arms a year. The Enfield rifle was sold to both sides in the American Civil War 1861-5. Dad had an allotment situated in Ferndale Road, next to what was then the first bungalow occupied by the ‘Long’ Family, and kept us supplied with many vegetables throughout the war. Dad’s hobby was shoe repairing and we all suffered cuts and bruises trying to copy him in his absence.

Primary schools: Chesterfield Infant School, Chesterfield Junior School, Keys Meadow Primary, Prince of Wales Primary School Illustration 5. The First World War Lewis light machine gun was replaced in the late 1930s by the British-Czechoslovak Bren .303 light machine gun (illustrated) and by the Sten light machine gun. During the Second World War the Enfield .38 pistol revolver was also made at the RSAF and up to 350,000 people, mainly women, were employed at British Royal Ordnance factories producing 5 million small arms.There were 2 prisoner of war camps close to where we lived, one at Bullsmoor Lane, and the other in Sewardstone Road On Sundays, the services to Liverpool Street and Bishop's Stortford do not run and station is instead served by a half-hourly service between Stratford and Hertford East. Almost immediately after leaving Lea Bridge, on your left is an entrance to the Middlesex Filter Beds. Just the name might be enough to make you curious, and the excellent information board will entice you to take a look. This nature reserve once had an important role in providing London's drinking water and it's well worth a visit. The main features for us were the effects that nature has as it regains control of a manmade structure, and also for the "mini Stonehenge" a few yards from the entrance.
