History - October

While carrying out repairs to our floorboards, we found some interesting pieces of history tucked away in the gaps underneath.


The first find was an original piece of Meccano, probably dating from the 1930s or 40s, which must have slipped between the boards while a creation was being built.


And this was a ticket for the 2nd Warwick Sea Scouts' grand Christmas draw - to be drawn on Wednesday 21st December 1960.  


The prizes included whisky, port and cigarettes...how things have changed!
