Unlawater Hotel

A Memory of Newnham.

This hotel was owned by my mother Patricia Woods till around 1959. Newnham was a busy place then. H G Zeal had a thermometer factory in the High Street. Above the hotel was a dairy farm run by A.Jones (Dean Forest farm). As a matter of interest, the name Unlawater translates to River of Sorrows and was from a time back in history when Lady Padget lived there and a member of the family drowned in the river. Best wishes,
Rai Woods. (Captain)
