OUR AUDIO HISTORY

Interviews conducted by Eileen Power and Tony Mills in the mid 80's

In 1984 and 1985 Eileen Power and Tony Mills interviewed a number of the residents of Haxton, Fittleton and Netheravon to record and capture their memories and life experiences.  

The tapes have been reformatted digitally to be able to share their memories with you.

We hope you enjoy listening to them.

Thank you Liz Lester for providing these cuttings of Mrs ‘Dora’ Blake.

I don’t think anything else needs to be said the cuttings say it all.

 

We hope you have enjoyed listening to the experiences of all the interviewees.

As a group we are so glad the Jubilee Committee agreed to fund the digitisation of the cassettes and for Tunnel Rat Studios for doing such as fantastic job to remove the background noise and to make them so easy to listen to. Thank you.
