Wellesbourne Hall
Welford-on-Avon - a Raphael Tuck "Oilette" postcard from the early 20th Century. "Welford is a pretty little
village situated on the banks of the Avon in the centre of that beautiful district of England endeared to the
heart of the tourist as "Shakespeare's Country".  Its cottages are very quaint and picturesque with the
inevitable thatched roof, red-tiled chimney and casemented windows, and have probably stood in their
present state since the days of Shakespeare".
This postcard from 1909 is entitled "The Tumble Down Stile, near Stratford-on-Avon" The description from
the reverse is "This quaint and deceptive gateway is situated in a field at Charlecote, close to
Stratford-upon-Avon. To all appearances of firm construction, it is so built that the unwary pedestrian who
attempts to cross it without knowing its peculiarities, is precipitated headlong to the ground."
This is a lovely old postcard of Claverdon Station which I can't date as it is unused ! Can anyone help ? Who
was the Stationmaster ?
