Petty France Cottages

I was born in the middle cottage out of three which the Duke of Beaufort owned back those days, now they have been modernised to a high standard and are privately owned. I used to spend a lot of my time in the Seven Mile Woods just the other side of the road, and when I was older I helped out on the farm which was just behind my house (Petty France Farm). As I got older I then had lots of friends in Hawkesbury Upton which is just over a mile up the road. They were good days when things were so much different to the way we live now! I could stay and write on here all night but at work so must crack on. Terry Hewer terryhewer@blueyonder.co.uk
