Memories of Cricket Pavilion 1899, Shepton Mallet
Where It Is Now
I don't know when, but at some point the whole pavilion was moved to where it it still is, just behind Nat West and Philips' Tyres. It has been converted into a bungalow, but if you look closely you can see what it was. When we had our office there, it still had its little tower, but it leaked and the landlord took the easy option of removing it.

Whitstone School
I remember my first day at Whitstone, after leaving Doulting Junior it seemed so big. I had 5 good years at Whitstone, and made many friends. I send my regards to all my old school friends, Fond thoughts, Shaun Allen.
A Changing Townscape
Memories of Shepton Mallet.
I was born in Kilver Street, Shepton Mallet just two years before the Second World War was declared and have drawn upon my family and my own memories to produce 18 books of local history on the town and the surrounding area. Little had changed in the townscape during the previous 100 years, and it was until the 1960s that widescale demolition and rebuilding took place. In many cases this erased much of the 19th century built townscape. Should anyone like to know more about my town's history I would be glad to help, or visit my website: freddavis.co.uk .

I Live in Shepton Mallet
I was Shepton Mallet Carnival Queen and it was very good to do the job. My Granny and Grampy lived in Shepton Mallet and my dad and uncle were born in Shepton Mallet as well my mum who would've been the Shepton Mallet Carnival Queen in 1965. Pete and I are building a shed down Darshill. It used to be a pig barn and it is going to be wonderful when it is finished. We will have to take photos of the shed now and before. I got the map of Darshill and it shows us that the shed that me and my friend done is on the map
