Welcome to our new village website. Those of you have visited us in the past will be wondering why you have not been able to access the site for a few months now and why we have changed our URL.
This has all be due to the fact that we have been severely hacked and have been unable to recover and reinstate our old site. This is particularly galling as there was over 8 year’s work and blogs that have now gone forever.
If you have an outstanding query, particularly from our family history page, please be good enough to repeat it, so that we can continue with the reseach.
Please bear with us, while we rebuild this site; it could take quite a while!
Hello, I am looking for information on my great x2 grandfather Robert Henry Hearn who ran his coal, cake ,corn, seed and manure merchants from Finningham station in the years around 1860. I wondered if any photos existed with any shop signage.
Thank you
Kim,
Our Local History Group have some photos of the, now defunct, Finningham railway station (a victim of Dr Beeching!). I’ll have a look through them and see if your GGGf’s business is visible. Please bear with me for a shot while.
The newsletters for recent months have not been added to the website. Is there a problem?
Clive,
Sorry for the delay in replying. There was a problem but you should be able to access the Newsletters now; right up to the current issue.
