Zachary Merton by any chance? Now a retirement home, so gone full circle. Born there, raised in Patcham till I was one, then moved to Kew in South West London till I was six; been back in Sussex in the East Grinstead area ever since, but spend part of my time in London now.

Mum worked as an orderly at the ZM before she met Dad, otherwise I would probably have been born in Brighton. When did Buckingham Road shut? I was born in 1969.
I too was born in in 1969 and also born at the Zachery and also raised in Patcham!!!

Poll ? I was shocked to discover my Great, Great Grandfather was a Man of Kent: a bloody Jute and I thought I was Sussex. Horror probe. Do not look into your past, you may have foreign blood! Saxon name though. Otherwise it was Poet's Corner (grandparents) and Shoreham. Granddad worked on the turnstiles @ the Goldstone.
