More about this scene
Denmead's local shop advertises Saxa salt in the window. The original village, to the north-east, was known as Barn Green. Until the mid 1930s a fleet of buses known as the Denmead Queens operated in this area, transporting passengers between here and Portsmouth. The last bus ran in 1935, and was decked with ribbons to mark the end of an era.

He believes that it was a short walk from the public house called "The Harvest Home". ...see more
