I was born at Hill View Lamberts Castle in the 1940s. Mum use to run a small tea rooms and I remember a hiking organisation called the Holiday Fellowship calling their once a week. No mains water, electricity or gas made running the tea rooms a difficult job. She had to walk 200 yards for buckets of water from a stream from the nearby woods. I have many many memories of those years.
I remember going to Lamberts Castle fair as a small child sometime around 1955. The fair was run by the Herbert family but they stopped running it sometime in the mid 1950s because it was not financially viable. I understand at one time the fair included horse racing and existed because of a royal charter.
