More about this scene
Here the village is seen from the churchyard, which adjoins a beautiful Jacobean manor house. The triangle with the phone box was once a grassy area where there were hustings at election times. The signpost now sits in a flowerbed, and there is a new phone box next to the Crown Inn.

A Selection of Memories from West Harptree
For many years now, we've been inviting visitors to our website to add their own memories to share their experiences of life as it was, prompted by the photographs in our archive. Here are some from West Harptree
Sparked a Memory for you?
If this has sparked a memory, why not share it here?
Although I do not know West Harptree very well, my great-grandmother and great-grandfather are buried here, and there is a memorial to my grandfather William Moon in the church, he died in 1915 in India while in the army.
If anyone knows about either the Moon or Bendle families I would love to hear from you.
