Thank you Tom, for reminding me of this excellent website. What a wonderful film of Ewelme watercress gatherers. I searched for Cowley, which is quite amazing, showing the strike of 1956. It is really wonderful how you are taken back to how the road looked prior to all the road changes. Towards the end of this film you can see a glimpse of St Luke's Church - these people in the film would never have thought that this building would become a Record Office/ Library would they? I am now off to view:- http://www.britishpathe.com/results.php?search=Abingdon Kind Regards, Jill -----Original Message----- From: oxfordshire-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:oxfordshire-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Thomas Stevenson Sent: 22 August 2011 20:03 To: oxfordshire@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [OXF] Ewelme Photographs Bit of a very long shot but interesting nevertheless the following is a short piece of film from 1933. http://www.britishpathe.com/record.php?id=19149 Enjoy Tom
