Did anyone know the Hodgsons?
Looking for people who knew my Grandparents.Percy Hodgson owned
a Butchers shop at the top of Brockham Lane on corner of main
road.House called South Down,now a restuarant.Edith was
Grandmother,my Mum was Muriel,also Uncle Ralph.
Mum was married in Brockham church 1940's???Grandad frequented
the Barley Mow. I Believe he had his butchers shop built approx
1927,so they were in the area for many years till 50's.Grandad
first had Butchers shop in Betchworth on the old Reigate road,but
moved to new one because new Reigate rd was being built. Mum
attended Brockham school,but was always up Box Hill. Mum knew
the Chittys butchers.


Photos are Hodgsons and Bretts and Rixons in garden of butchers
shop.They were very sociable family.
Would love to hear from anyone who knew of them....Thank
You...email, Jenny@gardenofeden9.fsnet.co.uk

Are you interested in the history of Brockham village?
Are you interested in the history of Brockham and have a few
hours to spare? Would you like to contribute to your
community?
We are going to expand the history section of this website and
need new volunteers with a few hours to spare to help us research
the history of our village, plus collate the information,
photographs and documents we already have.
You will be part of an enthusiastic team who work together to
produce www.brockham.org -
our Parish Council's official website, which has growing visitor
figures month-on-month. This would be a very interesting pastime
for those involved - so don't delay! Please contact us for a chat
or for more information.
If you are interested please contact us on editors@brockham.org
or on 854917
Thank you.

Help Available from Poland Trust
Are you in need, hardship or distress?
You may have heard of the Sidney Michael Poland Trust and you
may know that it owns and manages ten units for elderly people at
Poland House in Kiln Lane. But did you know that the Trust also
manages a fund specifically for residents of Brockham who are in
need, hardship or distress? We do not have unlimited funds, but in
these difficult economic times, we may be able to help people who
are struggling to cope. For example, we might be able to replace a
broken washing machine or perhaps fund a training course to help
with someone's job prospects. If you would like more information
please call Lesley Cruickshank on 843531.
