Yes John, it was the 15th March 1964. There had been previous
snowfalls on
t 6th and 7th of that month. Also snow covered the Downs on the 3rd
and 4th
April 1964 with about 7cm on Westerham Hill.
There were several other sudden snowfalls such as the 14th April 1966
event
with up to 15cm of snow and places such as Pole Hill in Kent blocked
by snow
bound traffic.

There was heavy snowfall in Bracknell on 4 Mar 1965, with a
minimum of -10°C overnight. I was working there at the time. Later
in the month (29th) the temperature reached 24°C, after an overnight
min of 0°C. An interesting month.
