My part of our family (David Clark) came to Bracknell in 1861, and
so I am descended from his son George, who was born on the 10th of
July 1862. My father Bernard Clark was born there and grew up at
this house. He later married Dorothy Hobley and bought the cottage.
I was born there in 1953 and my bother (Colin) in 1957. I was
always interested in the town's history, from highway men, to who
owned the Bush Hotel or the Old Rose Inn, and of the famous people
who once stayed there, or had moved to the town. In 1969 I
interviewed some elderly people who had many a story to tell, but
it was not until 2009 that I came back to carry out some detailed
research. After working for forty years I found myself unemployed,
so I spent a lot of time at Reading and Wokingham libararies, plus
trips to Bracknell and Windsor. Then in 2012, I completed what I
had set out to do, on my 59th birthday (6th January) of that year.
