BBC - Radio 4 Memory Experience - In My Pram I Remember
In My Pram I Remember
Mariella Frostrup900 of the memories we collected in the Memory Survey were very early "preverbal" memories - some from as early as 6-11 months old. This result has shocked scientists and academics who believe that adults do not remember memories of childhood before they can talk. Research agrees that the mean age for true autobiographical memories is 3.5 years - but it appears that the nations' memories and scientific study disagree.

My earliest clear memory is standing with my mother at the top of Unthank Terrace, New Brancepeth, just below Rowlands Garage and watching the fire which gutted St. Catherines Church which stood behind Church Street at the bottom of New Brancepeth. The year was 1942 and I was four years old. The ruined church stood derelict for many years before it was demolished. Church Street also has been demolished for many years.
