Horsham Forum - The Horsham and Southwater Commmunity Forum

I am currently looking into the History of Southwater and am especially interested in anything to do with where Testers garage used to stand, I believe it was also called Cripplegate Garage before that (or perhaps they are one of the same).

If you know anything of the history of the garage (dates was built, who owned it etc...) then I would be eternally grateful as information is hard to come by. Of course if you were a previous owner or are family then that would be even better as I am trying to find pictures of how it used to look and pictures of the people who used to work there.

This is not something I am reseraching for college but is just a hobby of mine and any help would be appreciated. My email is stulogan316@hotmail.com and I look forward to hearing from you.

Regards

As I have just mentioned in a another thread thre is an excellent Southwater Local History Group. It might be worth contacting them to see if they can help.

Thanx for the link and yes I did get some info but unfortunately my computer crashed before I could reply and have just asked the lady if she could send me some pictures of the garage etc...via email.

Could I ask if anyone has any pictures of the garage which stood at Tester's Close or of any of the owner's and could send me a copy via email then I would be grateful. I appreciate that they would remain the copy of the owner and would seek permission to use them should I get round to putting a website together on the subject.
