Gloucestershire memories

Raynor Family in Toddington

Does anyone remember the Raynor family who live at the old mill in Toddington? They were living there in 1945, and later in Culls Meadow. Henry, known as Harry and Rebecca Raynor had 6 children, Alec, Norman, Doris, Ralph, Louisa and Brenda who died as a baby in 1931.

Greet

There is an old tumbled down cottage off Market Lane in Greet. It is listed on the 1815 Sudeley Tenements map. We know the Wixey Family lived there until about 1957 and then before them the Fisher fanily from the mid 1930's. We would love to find photos of this old house and the local area.

Orchard Cottage

I moved to live in Cheltenham in 1953 and met the girl who would become my dear wife. She lived in Orchard Cottage in Greet near Winchcombe. There was a public house called the Gardeners Arms on the crossroads near to the cottage. This is pub is now the Harvest Home. My wife was called Jeanette Luker and her mother was married to Bob Wixey. We have been happily married since 1955 and live in Cheltenham.

My mother was born and raised in Winchcombe. Her parents the Osbornes lived on Gretton Road. We lived across the street from them in the early 1970s while my father was away during the Vietnam War. I have very fond memories of the local primary school(?), Ginnie the donkey, walking to church every Sunday with my friend (?) and Mrs Mason's sweet shop on North Street, riding to Pates Junior School in Cheltenham on the double decker. I also remember the Banks. Fred Banks I believe presides over the annual flower show. I'm glad I found this site ... it really brings back some good memories.

Winchcombe Congregational Church

I would be very interested to obtain pictures / photographs of the Congregational Church and The Abbey house. My grandfather Henry W Florance was a minister of the Congregational church from 1900 - 1906. According to 1901 census he lived at Abbey Houses. My late father was born there along with twin brothers.

Auntie's Tea Gardens

My mother's family once lived at the vicarage in Upper Slaughter, when my grandfather, Rev Arthur Parr, was vicar. My mother married and moved away to Yorkshire, where we grew up, but as children, my sisters and I stayed once with our auntie and cousins in their pretty Cotswold stone cottage while our parents attended a wedding. It was our first time away from our home, and it was so lovely. The garden was full of vegetables and flowers, with a greenhouse, I think - so well tended. It was no surprise when later my auntie made a tea garden there. When I was expecting my first baby I visited again, this time with my husband, and we sat in that lovely garden with a traditional Cotswold tea and cakes made by local village ladies. I can almost smell the sweet peas.
