Glemsford Station

Celia Hall has sent some more work about life in the Station Master's house at Glemsford Station.

Yet again, it is fascinating stuff, emphasising (to me at least) just how important it is to record everday life for posterity. So much has changed in such a short time.

Thanks again, Celia.

Looking for a burial

I was wondering if anyone can help me.

As a child my Mum used to stay in Glemsford a lot (she was evacuated to Lavenham after this).

My uncle who was lost in the 2nd World War had a lurcher who died at Glemsford.
This dog was buried near Glemsford Station and Squire Paddy Lambert from Foxearth knew the children well and had the grave made special by having iron railings erected around it.

Can anyone else remember it and does anyone know if it still exists?

Here's hoping,
Jane Goodger
