Memories of The Log Cabin c1965, Symonds Yat
Great Days
I am not sure of the year, somewhere between 1952 and 1960. Head Forester: Mr Frank Watson. Forester: Mr Ian Falconer Builders: Mr Jones and Chips Cooper. There were probably more men involved, but both the men named were forestry workers and carried out most of the work by hand, using only an axe which they could handle with great accuracy, a skill honed by years of felling trees all over High Meadow. Mr Jones lived at the post office/shop only 100 yards away. I worked for W. J. Herbert & Sons, we were responsible for delivering the logs to the site from the flour mill near Bream. During the construction Mr Watson took a photograph of the team sat on a lorry, I have tried to locate that picture without success.
