That was lovely to see. I used to live in one of the two houses on the hill as you would turn right off Rayne Road , to the lane leading to Ushers farm. My Dad was his ploughman. He used to win ploughing competions for Usher. We moved there from Suffolk in 1954. I now live in Cornwall. Love your Dads accent.
Sheila Breslin Thank you! It’s all changing near where you lived with the so called “Rayne Garden” development now. My dad was born in Cornwall (St Buryan) and moved here in the 40s because no work in Cornwall where he met my mum at Bocking village hall. He always kept that accent. Both passed on now
I lived at number 18 when I was a small child. I remember my father forgot to take some vintage wine bottles in the cellar worth hundreds of pounds each when we moved out, and the new owners drank them in coffee cups to celebrate moving in 😂.
I remember there was a truck depot and office for Hunnable’s before the turning just to the Broomhill industrial estate. Pods brook road was built for the bypass link Simon
Kevin C good job well done I say. He did it well mate 👍🏽 back in the days in the mk1 fiesta. I live in Braintree and it’s good to see footage of a while back.👌
FPV FREAKY I had that Fiesta 950 popular for around 10 yrs from new, reliable it was. Though my dad lived in Essex since the mid 40s he kept his native Cornish accent!

Great video, took me back to my childhood, thanks
Heard about them bldg that & now most used.
Yes a few years after this they built the bypass which dramatically changed the landscape. Ever since then braintree changed at a rapid pace.
Oh fuck I remember this!! Schools were shut instead, Braintree Jesus Christ’ thanks for this 👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks for these nostalgic trips!!!
Reminiscent of hitchcok
wow amazing what things have changed and also what still remains! even the trees look so much smaller in this video
This was the time that the COOP, Woolworths and The Blue Dolphin Fish and Chip restaurant nr. sandpit lane was in existence, good old days!
In fact this was filmed not long before construction of the bypass started.
Wow that s way way back in time & a whole way of life gone.
