Wonderful . Good narration . When English was correctly spoken , pronounced and understood .
Thank you very much!
Nice to see these snapshots of our history.
The landlord of The Fleece in the video was my great grandfather James Ollerenshaw.He was an officer in the Indian army. Bread in France Lynch ( a Hugeonot outpost like Petty France on the A46) was delivered by the bread donkey .
What sort of date would that be?

My Great Grandfather
Joseph Matthews was born to an Agricultural Labourer in Cricklade Wiltshire in the mid 1800's and went on to be a horse trainer around Stroud ,Gloucestershire.,where my Granfather and his siblings,grew up.
My mother was born in London in 1938 and spent the war and some years after in the Marist Convent in the village of Nympsfield,Gloucestershire.
A Beautiful area.
Beautiful indeed. The Cotwswold Edge .
Those working hours will return. But, less food .......
A gallon of bread and half a dozen milk sounds great.
Just to think, their peasant cottages are worth a cool million in Current Year.
