Avenue story

Today is the anniversary of my arrival in the Wendy House of Dangerous staircase fame.
Locals on the Avenue are building a social history of the Avenue that will will be displayed in a local show this summer then given to the Berkshire County record office. The local retired fellow who’s coordinating the activity stopped by with a letter, to chat over tea. I’ve contributed gossip, rumour and scanned copies of the house title deeds. I have three things in common with all the previous residents of the Wendy House, unmarried, working, girl.
I am looking forward to finding out about the:
- gallows.
- south american rancher.
- telephone exchange.
