THE CHRISTMAS NEWSLETTER Sheena WELCOME TO THE CHRISTMAS NEWSLETTER What a year we've had with changeable weather, changing Committee members and major changes planned for Teddington. However now we're coming to the end of 2014 and it's time to think about Christmas. Not everyone looks forward to Christmas, particularly if alone, with no family and not in good health. This year again we will be giving Society Christmas food parcels to some 40 local residents through the Health & Social Care department based at Teddington Hospital. We hope to get charitable support for this. We hope to see lots of you at our New Year party, details of which are enclosed. This is a chance for us all to get to know each other a little better. Your Committee are all volunteers. No-one is paid and the rewards we reap are seeing good things come to pass in our town which we all love. Whenever we can we donate to local charities and good causes, so if you'd like to suggest suitable recipients do let us know. Even Santa has got into his Pram to race to the centre pages to see who benefited from the revived Pram Race. 2014 has been the Year Of The Poppy as we remembered the centenary of the outbreak of World War One in 1914 memorably with the sea of ceramic poppies in the moat of the Tower of London. So Elizabeth Foster’s photo of a humble sparrow on one of those poppies tops our cover and Peter Denton’s lovely photo of a red deer stag in the snow in Bushy Park, now a Site of Special Scientific Interest, ends it. May we wish all our members and their families a very Merry Christmas and a Very Happy 2015. Sheena The Teddington Society EDITORIAL 1 Avenue Road, Teddington TW11 0BT After a long Summer and surprisingly mild Autumn, Teddington is getting Reg. Charity No. 802026 ready to celebrate Christmas and New Year. In this edition of Tidings we www.teddingtonsociety.org.uk look at some of the issues facing the town and some past and future events.

In our last issue we looked at their earliest years. In 1903 William Poupart Snr. bought out the dairy business at Slades Farm to the south of Blackmore Farm and in 1906 this became the Fulwell Golf Course. One of the old farm buildings became the canteen where the first seats were old trolley bus seats no longer needed at Fulwell bus station. By the early 1990s the old buildings were really beyond their best and in 1993 the company built the new garden centre shop, restaurant and plant area you see today. In 1912 his son William acquired Blackmore Farm. The family were renowned for their jam factory and grew most of the fruit needed for their jam. It is not certain whether the farm they acquired stretched all the way along Sixth Cross Road nor whether it became their dairy farm or fruit farm or possibly both. The offices moved into the old Victorian farmhouse William Poupart and his wife Jennie moved to the which is still the registered office of the company. A farm. William died there in 1939 and Jennie lived further refit of the garden centre was carried out in there until her death in 1961. A photograph of the 2013. entrance to the property and the house taken in the 1930s shows that the entrance was in Wellington Over the years the centre has won a number of Road. awards including Garden Centre of the year and most recently in 2013 the plant department was awarded Best Plant Area in the UK as a result of the annual inspections carried out by the Garden Centre Association. Plants and gardening products remain the core business of this family owned company which now operates 15 garden centres in the south east. When Squire’s acquired part of the farm, largely comprising the farmhouse, old farm buildings and some surrounding land, the establishment was in need of some TLC. The old buildings were put to new use for retailing and the stables were the offices for many years. A new and very modern (in the 1960s) angular building constructed for the houseplant department and this became quite a feature of Sixth Cross Road.

  • D-Day Marshalling and Embarkation Areas
    SECOND WORLD WAR - D-Day Marshalling and Embarkation Areas 1. Operation Overlord From April 1944, the east-coast, the south and west coastal areas of England and parts of south Wales were divided into a number of concentration areas known as Marshalling Areas (MAs). One or more MAs served an Embarkation Area (EA). Preliminary planning as regards to the layout of each area had been worked out the previous year, such as exercise 'Harlequin' – carried out within the Sussex District and Central Sussex Sub- District during August and September 1943. By mid-March 1944, the Overlord Marshalling & Concentration Area plans were being finalised, this was called the 'Sausage Plan' on account of the shape given to the MA boundaries when identified on a map. Command Responsibilities Eastern Command was required to provide concentration areas for all troops passing through Tilbury and London Docks. This included an infantry division plus accumulated residues totalling 104,000 troops. Felixstowe and Tilbury Docks were each to be allocated one reinforcement holding unit of 1,600 troops and one reinforcement group of three units of 4,800 troops within the concentration area. Southern Command's primary responsibility was to provide concentration areas for US Forces by direct arrangement with SOS ETOUSA. This was in addition to two British armoured brigades located in the Bournemouth /Poole Area, and 21 Army Group. One reinforcement holding unit was also required to be accommodated in each of the Portsmouth and Southampton MAs. British Airborne Forces required tented accommodation for 800 (all ranks) at certain airfields within the command from which the forces would operate.
