Extract - Memories of Mr W S Ladds in 1942

For eighty-one years he has never missed a Sunday School anniversary, and he is looking forward to keeping up the custom this year. In a place of honour on his wall is a small diploma which he was given when he had attended for 80 consecutive times.


Extract from obituary of Mr Maurice Skinner:

His memory was particularly good, and on the occasion of the stone-laying of the new Independent Wesleyan chapel a month ago he said to one of his friends:-
“I can remember the time when the Wesleyan Methodists used to meet in my father’s house near the Green, 80 years ago.”
