Anyone Remember?

I remember going to buy vegetables from Mr and Mrs Clitheroe (sp)?. They ran a smallholding in North Street, opposite what used to be the cricket field. They grew their own vegetables and kept chickens and rabbits.

In those days Stilton's only entertainment was the occassional garden fete and (once in a blue moon) a dance at the village hall.  The cheese rolling started whilst I was still living in Stilton.

A walk 'down the fens' or up 'Hart's hills' was one of our childhood entertainments.  

Does 'Dick Turpin' still do his ride through Stilton on stormy nights? LOL
