***UPDATE – COPIES ARE CURRENTLY AVAILABLE IN BROADHEMPSTON COMMUNITY SHOP***
Here are details of a new book published by the editors of the Broadhempston, Staverton, Landscove, and Woodland Parish News.
Village Lives is a marvellous book, containing a host of interesting articles which were published in the Parish News between 1975 and 2009. It gives a vivid picture of life in our five villages, their inhabitants, the society and the social changes that have occurred in relatively few years. The Parish News editors were keen to preserve and preseputnt the social history just sitting there modestly within all these magazines. Suitable local photos have been included in the presentation.
An electronic version (pdf) is available here. For those who want to read it online, our neighbouring parish Littlehempston have integrated it into their village website .
A hard copy version is also available through Amazon.co.uk. Just search for ‘Village Lives’ in the book section, or click this link Village Lives, put it in your basket and pay for it (£5.99 plus p&p).
