In 1919, my mother's father had returned to Wales from India where he had been teaching, to marry and a few years later he was amongst those who moved permanently to Slough. He lived first in St. Paul's Avenue until he was able to purchase land and build a house for his growing family in Farnburn Avenue, off the Farnham Road, from where he ran his engineering business. Many other workers arriving around this time were temporarily housed in Timbertown, an estate of wooden bungalows, also off the Farnham Road.
