Recently in Communicate general, there is a discussion about Chadwicks of Standish.In the 1950's and 60's, our back garden virtually backed onto their large field where they kept the cattle and sheep prior to slaughter. In this photo beyond the 2 hedgerows was the field. On a number of occasions we used to find the cattle had managed to get out of the field through the hedge and into our garden enjoying the veg etc that dad grew. The Sawyer was constructed by Dad in 1969.and worked well when the wind blew.
