St Olave District, Bermondsey. She was living in 86 Trescillian Road, Brockley
with Aunt Anne (Elizabeth (Annie) Mary), who owned the property.332 She was living in 51c Trescillian Road (top floor
flat). The flat was reached by climbing concrete steps at the back
on the outside (quite steep), entering through a communal door, then climbing
stairs inside with attractive bannisters on one side, and a dado rail painted
in red gloss, with large-patterned textured paper beneath painted in black gloss.
The window on the landing had pretty coloured glass around the edge. There
was a stove in the fireplace of the good-sized lounge, with mica windows, and
display cupboards containing many knick knacks that I liked to play with as a
child. There was a black upright piano in the dining room. The concrete steps
outside were quite scary when I was little. A small garden lay behind the property,
with a mulberry tree in the middle of the lawn. Kathy (Katherine Joan Wallwork
(nee Sales)) She was baptized in St James Church, Bermondsey.332 Edith Helen Primrose (Peggy) COPPOCK and John James
