More about this scene
Beyond the cottages stands the village school, which served the community between 1881 and 1946. The schoolmistress lived in a cottage, which now replaces the one where a man here sits on the step. The tall chimney next door rises above a bread oven, whose rounded shape protrudes from the wall of the house.

My grandparents lived in Porch Cottage in Luccombe. I would often be taken to visit my grandparents but it was during the summer holidays I had the most fun.
