More about this scene

Beckbury, just a mile or so to the south, can certainly be described as a village, and it still retains its pub, the Seven Stars. A local man called Square Stubbs was born in Beckbury in 1671 - he used to ride up to 20 miles every day, always at a steady trot that became known as All Stretton.

Sparked a Memory for you?

If this has sparked a memory, why not share it here?

Does anyone have any old photographs or memories of Beckbury Cottage (formerly Butchers Farm?) We know the cottage/outbuildings used to be a butchers shop/slaughter house and the old hooks for hanging the meat are still on the outside wall facing the road. Also would like any information on who lived here in the past or any old photographs of Beckbury generally.
