1950s Eastry

A Memory of Eastry.

This is very nostalgic! In the Autumn of 1955 I was on leave from the Far East,and helped my recently widowed sister and her young son settle into Lynch Cottage. She bought the house from the Hon Barbara Lucas and her third husband,Peter,an artist The lucases then took over the Bull Inn,where I spent much of my spare time,with,among others,Bob and Joan Stanford-Tuck,who were particularly kind to me.In 1959 my new wife and I spent many happy times at Lynch Cottage
The village was quiet,and we met many congenial people there,and in Sandwich and Canterbury.
