My First Job
A Memory of Ilsington.
I lived at 6 Albert Terrace in Bovey Tracey, and my first real job was at the Haytor Hotel in Ilsinton, the owners of the hotel at the time (1955) were Mr & Mr Henke I believe, not quite sure if the name is right.
The staff at that time lived behind the hotel in a small bungalow. What great times we had, the moors, horseback riding, and of course the local pubs for meals and drinks. Your posting from Michael Steer brought back so many memories, he lived two doors away from my Granparents Ernie and Mary Cann.
I have been back to Bovey on holiday many many times and still enjoy a ride up across the moors and a cream tea in Widecombe.
