My grandparents moved to Nigeria Road SE7 from Newcastle in about 1925 (Grandad worked on the gas). My dad, two aunts and two uncles were born and raised there. All of those siblings moved away, but my grandmother lived in that house until about 1990 when she moved to assisted living and my dad bought it from the council. Then I lived there for a bit with him. He sold it in the late 90s.
When I’m in Charlton, I often drive past it just to have a quick look. It was only small, but I was very fond of that house. ❤️4 -

SE3 boy, though did cross the border every day for 4 years in the sixties to go to Sherrington Junior Boys School which is SE7…I guess the next logical step was always going to be to keep walking and on to The Valley0

However, my aunty and uncle lived on the house next to the club shop on Floyd Road from the late 80s up until about ten years ago. Nice little pre-match visit every other week.1 -
Having started this thread, I ought to reveal more about myself...
Born in Sherington Road. I lived in Sherington Road for 20-odd years. Attended Invicta Infants and Sherington Junior School. As an adult, I gradually moved further south towards Sussex, with spells and homes in Thailand and Malaysia. I'm now an old fart living in a village in Kent, a mile from the Sussex border. My first appearance at The Valley (so I was told) was when I was 4 or 5 - I was taken for my fifth birthday; it was just before or after my birthday. I can't remember the opposition. It was probably against Huddersfield Town, a boring game that ended with a tennis score. Or maybe not.3 -
