The owner of 10 St. Mary's has fond memories of their childhood spent in the house, which was their "domain" along with their sister. They recall joyful moments of dressing up, playing hide and seek, and racing up the stairs, dodging their mother's expertly thrown slippers. The family would gather around the dining table for loud and chaotic meals, filled with love, food fights, and laughter. The owner's mother was known for her antics, such as forgetting potatoes in the Aga and wandering around muttering about the smell of croissant. As the children grew older, the house was the scene of many "secret" teenage gatherings, with their mother gradually graduating from cleaning up toys to mopping up beer.
