Margaret Thulborn (119 Hemingford Road) recalled the bottling plant behind no.75 and Ralph Goodrum coming round with his horse and cart delivering the milk even in the 1950s. The horses would be put in the field in Seymour Street each night (now the site of Seymour Court) – in those days the road ended at the field, with no continuation round to Mill Road. And the children would go fishing in the nearby brook.
