Down Meadow Lane

<p>This book describes life in a very remote Cotswold village in the early 1950's. There are stories that will shock you naughty stories stories about the supernatural stories about everyday life and stories to make you laugh. Todenham not the easiest of places to find and on the list of Cotswold Villages of Character Todenham had fallen off the bottom. Why was this so? Todenham unlike other Cotswold villages had not moved with the times it was stuck in a bit of a 'time-warp' due to its remoteness and isolation. There were three steep hills to get to the village and on three sides Todenham was surrounded by the County of Warwickshire a foreign country as far as the good folk of Todenham were concerned. Todenham population about 220 in the early 1950's had its characters; a village idiot a madman an unmarried mother a petty criminal (the one that got caught) a homosexual (every village had one) many drunks and a girl very keen on boys from an early age called Rosie. Todenham was also unusual in that it had more than its fair share of the supernatural; a haunted Old Mill a pub with not one but two ghosts and a haunted meadow. It also had a church with a secret. There are stories about all of these in the book. Read and enjoy.</p>
