Pitville Park
A Memory of Cheltenham.
Kathleen Cook of Crockleford Heath near Ardleigh became nursemaid to Commander and Mrs Tinson of Colchester. Following her husband's death in 1927, Mrs Tinson set off in that autumn with her children Sheila, aged 9, and Jack, aged 4, and Kathleen, aboard her Austin A7 to visit Mr Tinson's parents who lived in Pitville Park. Following the visit they journeyed on to Gwalia in Tresaith for one month before Kathleen, then still only aged 17, returned with the children to Colchester aboard a Black & White coach from Cheltenham. Mrs Tinson Jnr, was related in some way to Dame Catherine Hunt, who was possibly her aunt.
