More about this scene

Cosby brook runs through the centre of this pleasant village, which is a doorstep to the city; the village was the first in the county to have a conservation area. A post office, a shop and a hairdresser's still serve a larger and more varied community.

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

At 3 p.m. on Saturday 10th July 1965 I married Tony. Our marriage was conducted by Thomas Stanley Archer (Curator) of St Michael's Church. At the time I was living in The Cottages, Littlethorpe (now demolished) but had previously lived on Narborough Road, Cosby. Tony and I have a daughter and a son. We celebrate our 45th wedding aniversary this year - 2010.
