Nice local history book produced by residents for the millennium. My Grandma's family are from this village so lots of familiar names. Also a photo and some anecdotes from Grandma (Ida Bates, nee Hancock) were a nice touch from a personal perspective. There's also a photo of my great-great grandfather (although not noted in the text) and of 'Tink' Hancock, who would have been a great-great uncle. The section on the church was written by Phillip Nicholls, who is a cousin on another side of the family! Lots of interest for me here, as you can see.
