I've started a page on my web site called Wiltshire Wanderings. At the moment there are pictures on it, dating from Edwardian times, of Kemble and Ashton Keynes. Kemble was formerly in Wiltshire, but became part of Gloucestershire in 1897. To see these old pictures, click on Wiltshire Wanderings on the main page of the site: www.ianandjo.dsl.pipex.com The first Kemble picture shows a water hydrant located in a 'beehive' structure made of Cotswold stone. The second Kemble picture shows the Post Office, Limes Road, which was once situated on a plot of land in the middle of the road. The third picture shows the blacksmith's forge and cottage in Church Road. There are two Ashton Keynes pictures. The first shows one of the four ancient crosses, which had their tops broken off during the Civil War, while the second shows cottages at Kent End. -- Josephine Jeremiah www.ianandjo.dsl.pipex.com

Great to see, much more real than our idealized versions.
