More about this scene
Right of the Westminster Bank stands Manor Court, which was built as a merchant's house in 1550; in the upper rooms, some ceilings still retain their fine plasterwork decoration. Just distinguishable by its tall chimneys at the top of the street is Harvey's Hospital. Rebuilt in 1841, it was bequeathed to the town's poor by a 17th-century merchant.

Hello
My mum and her family were evacuated to Chard in WW2. My uncle and aunt are always talking about their time there and I would love to hear from anyone also with memories.
Kind regards
