More about this scene

This is a relatively modern development, while a mile and half away is the older village of Headley. There are still plenty of trees here. The church has a peal of six bells, given in 1935 in the memory of Mr and Mrs McAndrew, who donated the village hall to the Women's Institute. Nearby, Headley Mill is still working, and is a popular beauty spot.

If this has sparked a memory, why not share it here?

I can remember walking up this lane to my older sister's house on many a freezing cold winter morning at 6 o'clock in the morning as myself and 2 other sisters had to ge the bus to school, but dear Mom had to be in work for 7o'clock, so we stayed at big sister's house. How come I can only remember the horrid mornings, rain, wind, and the horrid snowy days, and so dark as well.
