  • In the late 19th - early 20th century, Joseph Arthur Gibbs and Alfred Williams documented everyday life in the villages of the Cotswolds and using their evocative descriptions combined with a wonderful collection of old photographs and archive film, this fascinating series brings to life the Cotswolds of a bygone age.
    The second film in the series looks at the people of the Cotswolds, from labourers to farmers
    This unique journey into the past will delight, entertain and touch the hearts of anyone with an interest in the Cotswolds.

    The landlord of The Fleece in the video was my great grandfather James Ollerenshaw.He was an officer in the Indian army. Bread in France Lynch ( a Hugeonot outpost like Petty France on the A46) was delivered by the bread donkey .

    My Great Grandfather
    Joseph Matthews was born to an Agricultural Labourer in Cricklade Wiltshire in the mid 1800's and went on to be a horse trainer around Stroud ,Gloucestershire.,where my Granfather and his siblings,grew up.
    My mother was born in London in 1938 and spent the war and some years after in the Marist Convent in the village of Nympsfield,Gloucestershire.
    A Beautiful area.
