A Memory of Gunnislake.

My grandparents, Mr Albert Taylor and Mrs Florence Taylor retired to Gunnislake in 1947. He died in 1967 and she in 1980. Nana was a dressmaker and Granddad was a retired Station Master. They used to have dogs, which we loved and we walked many miles, picking blackberries in the hedgerows. Some of my happiest childhood memories are of Gunnislake. A dog called Trixie used to arrive after lunch each day and finish up anything we didn't eat. We used to watch the cows as they plodded past the house to the farm next door at milking time. Mr Jefferies the baker made his delivery round using a horse drawn wagon. He didn't drive a motor car, so when the horse 'Madam' died, he retired.
