- A BRIEF HISTORY OF WINTERBOURNE
(Ecclesiastical Parish comprising Winterbourne and Watleys End)
PREFACE
This Booklet is not intended to be a complete History. It is simply a reproduction, in book form, of the
Articles which have appeared in the Community Association's Magazine "New Look" from June to
December 1967.
The writer wishes to emphasize the fact that far from being an Author, he has written in his own
"Amateurish Way", a few facts concerning Winterbourne hoping that they might be of some interest to
Readers.
Much of the information has been acquired during his long and happy life in Winterbourne. Sincere and
grateful acknowledgment, however, is made for the kind permission given to refer to the writings of the
late Dr CHB Elliott and the late Henry G Ludwell. Also for information and statistics so willingly supplied
by Mr A C Dunn, the offices of the Gloucestershire County Council, Sodbury RDC, and Church
Records.
HWN Ludwell
2nd December 1967.
Editorial Note - a series of articles which Mr Ludwell later wrote between March 1968 and April 1971
has been combined with the original booklet described above to form this tribute to his unbounded
interest in the history of Winterbourne.
