Woolen Mill

My grandparents George and Sarah Ruddick lived in Heads Nook. He worked as a guard on the railways, she worked in a small room repairing woollen blankets in the Mill. They lived in Glenn Terrace, Heads Nook. I have many happy memories of visiting them. I believe we used to go to the village hall for some functions, as well as attending the village church. Having lived in the USA for some years I have lost all photos of the village. Anne Hirst, daughter of Isaac Ruddick, their only child.
