Holmesdale CP School. The country dancing team pictured in 1957 with teacher Beryl Newton are actually pictured at Glyn House, Ewell.
With thanks to Mr. P. White (who appears in the picture).

Penny Stapley from Birkdale, qld, Australia posted this comment on Friday 08 January 2010 07:50:00.

Beryl Newton is my cousin. I love this photo, as this is how I remember her: full of life, a great sense of humour, and full of stories about her overseas trips. I live in Australia, but hold very dear memories of Beryl.

Paul Gale from Clevedon posted this comment on Friday 15 June 2012 12:38:00.

Beryl Newton (or Mrs Newton, as we called her!) was my first teacher at Holmesdale CP, in 1958. She was a very nice lady!

Miss Newton was a lovely lady. When my Mum died in 1960 I was 11 and in my last year at Holmesdale, when she found out I had lost my Mum she came and held me in her arms for a long time ( something you would not be allowed to do now ) she really was the kindest, sweetest lady.

This is my photo. Beryl Newton became a family friend. 2 of the boys in this photo, myself and Richard Cripps, were privileged to speak at Beryl's funeral, about 3 years after we held a reunion (2008) in the former school's building which Beryl and some 36 pupils came to. Me front left, Richard front 3rd from left.

For Penny Stapley, Comment 1, and Roger Campbell Comment 3, above. I was in Beryl Newton's class when my father died in 1956. She wrote my mother a wonderful letter, and they became lifelong friends. She ended the letter: "if there is anything that I can do to help you, or Peter, please do let me know. Remember me to Peter (I was off school for a while) and give him my love."

Standard Brick & Sand Co. Ltd., Redhill. 4th May 1957. Gervase. J.B. Latham.

Comment 1

John Humphrey from Sevenoaks posted this comment on Tuesday 10 May 2011 16:29:00.

Gervase was a Sentinel conversion of a conventional loco and went initially to the KESR at Tenterden before being moved to another site for restoration. Another Sentinel, Dom, went to Tenterden but only as a set of spares for Gervase and so was cut up. A pity, as Dom was rebuilt from the power unit of a narrow gauge Sentinel railcar on Jersey. The body still exists there and the owner intends to restore it subject to obtaining the necessary parts, etc. The former owner of Dom said that he would never have scrapped Dom had he known that the rest of that steam railcar still existed!
