Village Matters

Issue 49

We explore some local stories and trades this month, in the newly merged and enlarged Shepperton Matters. Read about the great wood scramble in 1928 around Watersplash Road when the area was cleared for housing. Read about a day in the life of a fishmonger, and about the trade of rope making in the area. Finally congratulations to Mat Tarrant who is a double world champion at rowing and is heading to Rio next year!
