Our Honeymoon
A Memory of Cranham.
Pat (nee Gilbert) and I were married at St. Stephen's church Sneinton in Nottingham July 1960. We arrived in Gloucester the same afternoon to be met at the train station by our hosts for a 3day honeymoon, they were the owners of the Black Horse Inn in Cranham. We have wonderful memories of the village the church and of Prinknash Abbey. We still have a beer tankard we purchased at the Abbey in thier famous dark grey pottery.
We emigrated to South Africa in 1972 and in the year 2000 (our 40th wedding anniversary) we celebrated by having a renewal of our vows at Parkdale Congregational Church roughly 1mile from St.Stephen's Church which was attended by most of our friends from our early wedding days.
A trip to see friends in Bath took us for lunch in Cranham, once again at the Black Horse Inn. All the memories came flooding back and we added more photographs to the ones of so long ago. It was a wonderful experience.
