Old Upminster 
I found a milk bottle from pages farm today how old is it
Not something I’m expert about but if it’s Padfield’s Diary it’s probably early 20th century: is it like the one in this article?: https://upminsterhistory.net/2018/12/11/upminster-common-revealed-part-two-gaynes-common-and-south-from-the-four-want-way/
Looking for a Miss Anne Ungoid from 1974,she was a teacher at the Bell infant/junior school. I was one of her pupils, she and another, Miss Metcalf took me under their wing and looked after me.
My name is Amanda Hadley.
Hi Amanda. Our children were at the Bell until about 1993 & my wife worked in the junior school from 1993 to 2014. Anne Ungoed was then a Y5 (third year) teacher and retired in the 1990s. We think she lived in Hornchurch. Suggest you post a request on the Upminster and Hornchurch History Facebook group.
Wow!!!!, thank you sooo much, I can’t believe I got a reply, fantastic!!!!. I would dearly love to see Miss Ungoid and Metcalf but I doubt that’s possible. Thank you very much for replying and telling me.
Yours sincerely Amanda 😁
