Photo of old SpaldwickA big thank you to Linda Smith for sending in some old photos of Spaldwick. Lisa, who is currently researching her family tree, is descended from the Brawn family.

John Brawn married Emma Belton in 1866 and farmed at Manor Farm, High Street, Spaldwick until his death in 1912.
