Comments about this page
Reading people’s comments about where they lived in their Prefabs and the area’s where they were situated, I’ve yet to come across people who lived on the large estate at Pollards Hill, Mitcham, on the border of Surrey, I lived in Recreation Close, anyone out there?
Please email prefabmuseum@gmail.com and I will get back to you as soon as possible. best wishes, Jane
I lived in a prefab for many years in Christchurch Avenue, Willesden, London. I would like to put my memories to paper but cannot get in touch.
Our prefab in Roding Ave had a boiler for washing, electric, cooker, fridge & immersion heater. It had a coal fire and a boiler behind to heat water as well. Our built in cupboards were metal and I believe the next row of prefabs were wood. It was a wonderful community where many of us made lifelong friends. My sister & I were born in our prefab. Our mother helped many a neighbour who was in labour before the midwife arrived. Happy memories.
