Basil Ransome brought in this little bible to show us. It is about 4 inches high and was presented to him at the Clippesby Sunday School when he was a child of 4, by the Rev. Simnett Davies. Dated 12th May, 1937.
Especially for this section we would be very grateful to borrow archive material (photos, cuttings, letters) for scanning, so that we can present an interesting record of the area of Clippesby through the ages. Anything you can lend us would be taken great care of, and returned very promptly.
