Living History

We are proud of Bilbrook’s long and interesting history, which has shaped who we are today.  If you grew up in Bilbrook, remember a special event or know stories about the old days? We would love to hear your memories, as we would like to keep a record of our history.

A transcript by Judy Davies of two audio tapes recorded in 1987 and 1989 with Mr. Leedham, a gentleman then in his eighties who had come to live in Bilbrook in 1918. His father was one of the ex-soldiers from the Great War who were given small-holdings in various parts of the country after the war finished.
