Aubrey Stevens Interview

Interviewed at home 'New Dunmow House' 1 Gafzelle Drive 1983

By Graham Stevens

This video footage of an interview with my father, Aubrey Stevens was re-discovered by my brother, Chris, a couple of years ago. It had been amongst the large collection of documents, post-cards and Canvey History memorabilia which my Dad had collected over the years which, unfortunately, became dispersed after his death in 1986. We believe it was recorded in 1983 but we do not have any precise knowledge of the organisation which conducted the interview. Many thanks to Mike Machin for transferring this from V.H.S. format to enable us to publish on the Archive. Graham.

Ha Ha, Dave. Yes you can, they were the Chinese geese on the piece of land next to my Dad's which we called ''the patch''. My Dad and nephew Paul Stacey kept a bit of a mini farmyard there with rabbits, chickens,Indian Runner ducks a couple of ordinary geese and those flipping Chinese type. It was quite an attraction for local mums and toddlers but I think the neighbours complained about those geese and eventually they had to go. Graham.
