Description

Mary Driver (nee Burton) lived at Holly Tree Farm, opposite the Co-op, with her sister Joan and mother, Kitty Burton. The Memorial (or village) Green used to be much larger, as the road past the old vicarage had not been built. The Burtons had permission to graze their cows on the green so they would be driven through the village twice a day for milking.
