INTRODUCTION TO ITEM BY DAVID GORE

Below is an article sent by David Gore to our Secretary in June 2020.  Given the current COVID-19 lockdown, it had reminded him of his own lockdown experience 80 years ago whilst evacuated to Gadebridge School during WWII.  Roy and I both read it and agreed that not only should it be published on our website as part of our local history, but that David should be encouraged to send it to HALS as well.  We  hope you will enjoy it and learn from it as we both did.   Barbara Chapman.
