Petrol Pump
A Memory of Kentisbury Ford.
In 1955, aged 12 years old, I clearly remember visiting North Devon with my father - we toured the district traveling on an old two stroke Francis Barnet - we stayed bed and breakfasting with 'Percy' who lived close to Woody Bay - My clear memory of our time spent exploring the beautiful North Devon coastline includes a stop to refuel the motor bike - we pulled up at an ancient petrol pump located outside of a farmhouse cottage in Kentisbury Ford, situated on the left hand side of the lane leading up hill to Patchole - little did I realize that one day I would actually buy and live in this old cottage! Does anyone have an old photo of my cottage now called Ford House (2020)?
