I visited berry hill at the weekend with my 80 yr old mother-in-law, she lived there in the 1930s.
It has changed beyond all recognition, she used to live in a house attached to another with a house on the opposite side, she remembers it being on a large green or common, this appears to have now been developed on, does anyone have any info or photos prior to the deelopment, the houses dont seem to be more than about 20yrs,
Also was there a small school in berry hill or did the children go to christchurch school??
many thanks,
lucy

Berry Hill Primary School was opened in 1954, primary education before this date would of been at Christchurch or Broadwell lane end, there is more info about this on the british history online website
