We’re bringing my 95 year old father, Douglas Canning back to Walkern on August 12th 2017 to revisit the village he grew up in.
Of particular interest will be Cannings wood yard where his father Francis had his builder’s yard.
It should provoke quite a few memories.
Thank you for all the interesting information about our house
