Description

Take a walk down history’s rural byways into the heart of everyday village life as it was from 1900-1960. The traditional spirit of the small country village – the charm of the buildings and the warmth of the welcome – is fondly remembered, but what was it really like to live in these communities? What was it that makes us long for a similar quality of life now? Here is a unique chance to recall those bygone days, as villages around Britain are visited through interviews, photographs, rare archive footage and stunning modern film. Based on the popular book of the same title, this is a treasury of scenes and faces from a rustic world that has now almost vanished.
