Pewsham today


Four stalwart members of the Our Town group met to explore modern day Pewsham. This will form part of the history exhibit the group are planning for September and will contrast with the older photos of the estate's formation the group have looked at already. The main photo shows the street (and possible house) where Pewsham residents voted prior to King's Lodge school being built in the early 1990s. It's strange to think of someone's kitchen and lounge being used for the democratic process! Naturally we ended the evening with a welcome drink at one of the sites we explored, the Old Lane pub. It made a nice change to be able to sit outside. Update from Sue Reed via Comments: "I can confirm that voting took place in Buckingham Road, however, it was at number 41 further around the cup-de-sac. I know, because we were viewing the house next door (which we eventually bought). The owners at that time worked at Wiltshire Council. At the time of our viewing we were alarmed at how busy the street was - thank goodness it was a one off and it is now quite quiet!"
