1944. Gordon May reported- "Mr Redrup, who lived at the bottom of the village was to me a little old man, bent double, who used two walking sticks. He used to tell me stories of the First World War when he was detailed to go and find German snipers. He said how difficult it was to hit a man a mile away. I found him very interesting, as he had a no 3 garden gun, which he let me use to take pot shots. He had a lovely apple tree in the corner of his garden, near the school. A lot of boys went ‘scrumping’ there."
