Q. Are you local to Hammersmith?
Fulham born and bred.  I’m the youngest of six children and come from a large extended family.  I had lived in the same street all my life.

Q. What changes have you seen locally?
Hammersmith has changed a lot over the years. I remember the Broadway before it was re-built. I used to go Irish dancing in a dance hall called The Emerald, it was a pre-fab situated where the lower bus station is now. There is a large Irish community in the area. At the entrance of the old Hammersmith Tube station was a
J. Lyons tea room, a chain that no longer exists. In the 70’s and 80’s the young generation hung out on King’s Road, Chelsea. The Lord Palmerston Pub and The Chelsea Bird’s Nest club were the places to be and be seen.
