In the mid 50s would the Orchard, call it what you will, have been known as Draycotts Dairy ? I never saw any cows there. It was the only place you could get a bottle of milk on a Sunday.A gentle tap on the small windowusually caught the attention of someone inside. I ran that errand a few times, strange, you always walked but were asked to run the errand.

During the "tidy-up" I came across several of your posts which consisted of just a now non-existent picture - that explains it!

I recognise the top photo alright, but where is the second one?

If you want any pictures saving for posterity via the History Society, you can always email them me, or, if you have a number of them, put them on a disc and send them to us. They may not always be on the web, but they will be kept safe for future generations.

Cheers, Robert

if these pictures are missing,it is the fault of MSN who updating every minute of the day and losing peoples pictures.please let me apologise now if this happens.
