Everybody called him ‘Jack’. He didn’t start school until he was 8 and had to walk there and back (about 6 miles) from his house in Coombe. He left school at 12 and went straight to work as a shepherd boy. He worked for Sam Hardy at Lower Farm (you can see him in the photo working with the horses), then for the Berrys at Oxenbourne and the Jones at Hillhampton Farm. This is my Grandad Harold. (In dark glasses). Everyone calls him ‘Nobby’. He was born in 1948 and went to the ‘Old School’ on the Hill. He remembers that his headmistress Mrs Hayes kept her hanky tucked into her knicker leg. Everyone took turns to be dinner monitors, and when the milk was delivered in the morning, it was kept warm by the stove until first break. This is my dad Justin. He was born in 1969 and went to the same school as I do now. He liked P.E. and gardening on Wednesdays. His Headteacher’s name was Mr Lewis. After my Dad left Agricultural college, he worked at South Farm. He now works at Duncombe Farm. My dad says he likes Farming because he likes working outside and driving big tractors and machines. This is my Great-great-grandad, Walter. He was born in Kilmeston in 1865. I don’t know where he went to school. He later lived at Bordean Cross and Coombe Bottom, working as a shepherd. You can see he quite liked catching rabbits as well! Hello, I’m Archie James Whitear and I will be 7 this year. I go to East Meon School. I’m in Oak class. My teacher is Mrs Nineham.
