Choir Practice In This Churchu

A Memory of North Tidworth.

My friends and I were all in the choir here - I think it outnumbered the congregation usually.  We had to share a vicar with Ludgershall.  Choir practice was on a Friday evening.  When the War ended in 1945 they were desperate for bellringers so us kids all got to help. It was not much of a holy peal though.

I spent many happy sumer days sitting on the ivy covered wall outside waiting for Sunday School to start.  My father's funeral service was conducted here in 1947 as the Military Cemetery does not have a church closer to it. The vicar's name was a Mr. Miller  He was a lovely Christian man and always came to the wedding receptions after he had married the couple.
