Where Did The Tin Hut Go?

This was the question and discussion at this morning’s Post Office Coffee Group from the village’s older residents.

The blue Tin Hut which was situated outside at Wall Farm on the B3164 towards Marshwood has gone. Some were shocked. Many were surprised.

So many wistful, memories were voiced:

  • “It was an icon.”
  • “It has been there since time immemorial.”
  • ”I remember the beautiful lilac that used to grow around it”

All understand that it may have been removed and the gate put in place to allow the farmer to move his cattle across the main road safer as it is a blind corner.

Nonetheless, another piece of local history lost….
