Katy Howard… Found a little photo that brought back many happy memories of growing up in Manor Road along with my brother Ollie. My parents Peter and Diane Parsons ( sitting on van) owned the garage for many years from the early 70’s. Dad sadly passed away in 89 and mum carried on running it until 2002 when she sadly also passed away. We lived in the house above. Such fond memories of all the kids I used to play out on the street with and the men that worked there.

Graham Sherrington… amazing how a mundane old photo can be so eye catching today!

Kay Lobb… Remember your mum and dad well, Katy. And your grandparents. As soon as I saw the photo, it reminded me of bygone times in Hastings. Your mum made my bridesmaids dresses back in 1975. Lots of love to you.

Keith Veness… Worked with your Dad at Winstone Engineering

Gary Benton… I believe Bill Brewster worked there during that time.

Alan Esdaile… I remember my school friend Michael Short lived here in the house above and visited many times, back in the day.

David Martin… Katy, your dad worked for me & my dad at Winstone Engineering he was a great worker & all round good guy

Roy Truncheon… Used to use it when we lived in Manor Road.
