Rose Cottage.
I was born at Bardney in 1946. We moved away from the area as my Dad was a farm worker so moved to different farms. My Grandparents used to live in Rose Cottage at Bardney which in my days as a young child along with my younger brothers and sister we used come to visit and I remember having to cross a field with geese in it to get to the Cottage. We all had to sit on a long bench at the very large kitchen table just a couple of memories that stick in my mind. I dont think the cottage is there now but would love to hear if anyone else can remember it. I hope to go back to Bardney one of these days to have a good look around as I know we had a very big family connection there. Vanda Miller nee Shucksmith.

RE: RE: Rose Cottage.
Hello My name is Andy Shucksmith, my grandparents lived in Rose Cottage at that time and my dad, Frank/John Shucksmith, was the youngest son (of 13 children) who all lived in the cottage together. Dad fought in the Second World War where he met my mum and they both moved back into Rose Cottage in about 1948. My dad is no longer with us but my mum still lives in Bardney and still tells tales of the big table in the kitchen and walking through the geese in the field. The cottage has now been replaced with a modern bungalow owned by Bob Armstrong the farmer. If there's anything more I can tell you please let me know.
