The large house next to Lloyds Bank was once a doctor's surgery, and it is now a public house known as the Inn on the Green. This interesting photograph also gives a good view of the war memorial and the edge of the churchyard with its lych-gate.

These tanks have floating roofs, the roof sitting on the liquid within. Some of the ...see more
