Summers in New Byth

Happy holidays. My aunt Bella stayed in the first house in New Byth and my uncle in the last house. My dad was raised and brought up here and my grannie never left the village. She fostered and adopted a number of children. Every summer holidays my brother and I came with our mum and dad and it was so carefree. My mum died last year, and in her possessions was an old record of my grannie being interviewed by a very polite BBC lady. Because grannie hadn't left the village she spoke with a very strong Byth accent. I have old photos from Byth as well. Aileen
