Our Oxhey editors

Would you like to join us?

There are lots of ways to take part as a volunteer:

  • Join our team of Community Editors for the website
  • Help collect, record and transcribe local memories and tales
  • Help out with events and activities

Give as much or as little time as you can spare

Community editors

A team of volunteer website editors update this site. We sub-edit and publish the pages that are submitted to Our Oxhey. Editors take it in turn to edit the site, so the demands on your time will not be high.

We will give you free training. You do not have to be a computer expert - none of us were before we had the training!

If you don't own a computer at home, don't worry. You can use a public computer at Hertfordshire Archives and Local Studies or at your local library.

Comments about this page

I am writing a book about my early life all of which takes place in South Oxhey. As time allows I will gladly provide photos, etc. that I have gathered through my own research and will look forward to seeing those of others. I am so pleased to have found your website.

I was born in the Bushey Hospital in January 1946. From Birth to nearly my 18th birthday I lived in Grover Road Oxhey. This house was bought by my parents from one of the rental properties my Grandfather owned. My Grandfather was the owner of the Duke of Edinburgh, opposite Bushey and Oxhey Station. I went to Oxhey Infants School, then onto Bushey Meads School. I have much to say about growing up in the Oxhey area but need to get names/places confirmed by my Mother.

I've just found picture of Oxhey Infants and Bushey Manor School on Britain from the Air. I went there in the late 60s. You went from Oxhey Infants directly to Bushey Meads, OK, not via Bushey Manor.
