Just looked in my Mum's old address book, the address was Royal Clarence Yard, Gosport. If I remembers correctly, you went through some locked gates into a yard with several houses set in a circle with a pond in the middle. You could go straight down to a jetty, where my uncle and Dad went fishing. We were there when Mr Kruschev arrived from Russia. My mother would have been able to tell me more, but she died last May aged 98.

Liz most of the barracks around Gosport are now Flats, we donot seem to have many naval places left now.

My great uncle was in the Royal Marines/Dockyard Police and we used to go to stay with him and my great aunt in Clarence Yard at Gosport in the mid - late l950's.
