Grandparents In Churt
A Memory of Churt.
My grandparents, George and Bertha Unwin lived and worked in Churt Between 1913-1924. They married at St Johns Church on Christmas Eve 1913. My grandfather was chauffeur to a Mr Shattock at Bookham's and they lived at Bookham’s cottages. After the death of his employer they moved to 2 Council cottages and then moved to Bournemouth presumably because of work. My grandmother loved Churt and always talked about it, but sadly never returned. A few years ago, I visited Bookham’s with kind permission of the owner and was able to take lots of pictures to show my mother who was born in the village. Even today it’s a lovely place, but only for those who can afford high property prices.
