LONGSTOCK MEMORIAL

 

I came across this photo on the internet recently, the house on the right is The Old Post Office and the building on the left is The Peat Spade's barn which I believe at that time was a brewery - it would be great to be able to put names to the people gathering around the memorial.  We think it's the inauguration of the war memorial, somewhere in the early twenties, if anyone has an ideas please let us know by contacting us.

 

Longstock Website Changes

 

LOCAL CRIME REPORTS

As you can see we have a new website - thought it was about time it was brought more in line with the design of other sites on the internet.

As you can imagine it is quite a long job putting a website together so please be patient if not all of the pages are complete, I thought it better to let people see what has already been put together.

If anyone out there has anything that they think could feature on the website please send it in so your village website can be kept informative, interesting and hopefully entertaining.

 

These reports give information on crime incidents in the local area and offer advice on crime prevention.
