Waddington, War Memorial 1921

More about this scene
The war memorial is centrally placed in the village alongside the winding street by the stream. The roots of tradition run deep here, and some old customs were observed until the 19th century. Beating the parish bounds was important – the ceremony impressed upon young people the extent of the boundaries. The village still has its punishment stocks. Although the smithy is now a private house, older villagers recall the First World War and how the blacksmith was recruited on one day a week to make horse shoes for the war effort.
