In the latest edition of the Broughton History Society Newsletter, Alex Dow tells the story of his family’s connection with a dairy farm at Broughton Point, and with Broughton generally. The photo features his grandparents, circa 1896.
Also included are: the story of the 1790 Census of St Cuthbert’s Parish – which included Broughton; a local fire in 1941; memories of a local sweetie shop; and a nineteenth-century poem in praise of Broughton Street.
