Bacombe

We walked at Coombe Hill today and around the back of the hill to 'Back Coombe'  via low scrubs.  This house, or cottage it was when my Mothers Godmother and her husband lived here, is visible through the trees this time of year.

I have very limited but very clear memories of this house with it's kitchen with an aga, always ware, black Labradors, huge fruit cages and orchard to play in.  The cottage was a tied cottage and when George retired they moved into the village.

So long ago now, I am getting old!
