My Father - Aubrey (Aub) Davenport
From 1960 approx onwards- my father was the best blacksmith around. He was a master blacksmith at Smithy-House, Siddington. He not only shod horses but was the master of welding farming implements. Never a bad word was ever said about him. He retired to Chelford where he died in 2001. Many of the farmers remembered him including -The Wains, Worth's, Venables, Pilkingtons and many many others including Mr R Rush layreader at the church who gave a wonderful reading at my father's funeral. I would appreciate all fond memories to my email at javealady@msn.com.
Living in Siddington
I was born in Siddington at Blake House Farm in 1943. I left in 1964 when I got married. I have so many memories. I went to Siddington school and attended the Siddington Methodist Chapel with my parents, 3 times a day on aSunday! I would love to hear from anyone and to swop memories of which there are very, very many. I was known as Marion Kennerley in those days. I go by my first name Elizabeth (Liz) now and married name of Appleby. I would just love to hear from any one who remembers those times and the area.
