The Post Office 1908
Enlarge photo |  More about this photo

Mr and Mrs Raines ran a postal service from this tiny shed at the bottom of their garden in 1908. The village was of course much smaller then: there were only four large families and no more than a dozen cottages. In the late 1940s the post office moved to a building in the main street. Later, the shed was used to house chickens before finally rotting away.
