This month's photograph again comes from the collection of the Harptrees History Society.
Thank you to the Harptrees History Society for another excellent photograph.
Do you know where this is or what the date might be? Perhaps you live in one of the houses shown. If you have anything interesting to tell us about it and would like a mention in the Gazette, please get in touch. Contact the editor at [email protected] .
Last month's photo was taken in Chewton Mendip in 1946. The tower of St Mary Magdalene (which was built in the 1540s) dominates the background as workers from Richard Dudden's Manor Farm use the thresher and baler. Hard physical work. Mr Dudden, known as Stanley, and his father, also Richard, had farmed in Chewton Mendip for about 50 years by the time of his retirement in 1951.
Do you have any old pictures of people, places and events in the Chew Valley and Mendip area that you would like to see in the Gazette as a mystery photo, or that could be added to the Harptrees History Society's archive? If so, please email [email protected]
