Ingleton, 327 Histon Road

History of Ingleton

In Growing Up In Cambridge, Alec Forshaw describes the Maskells. Claude and Cyril were brothers who worked at Chivers’ jam factory in Histon. Claude’s wife, Marge, ran the house. Small and pale, she was carpet slippers with pom-poms and nearly always carried a broom. She addressed Alec as ‘my angel’ or ‘my sugar lump.’ Cyril drove a Robin Reliant; Claude cycled to work.

1962
