More about this scene

This was the village school, built in 1881 by John Sheppard. George Ewart Evans came to live in Blaxhall in 1948, when his wife became headmistress. He did much of his early oral history recording in the village; this formed the basis of many books, including 'Ask the Fellows who Cut the Hay' in 1956.
