Mrs Powell, aka Mother or Joyce, the lady who, along with our father Melvin, was responsible for bringing us up as well as bringing the Old Vicarage back from dereliction 55 years ago used to write a monthly article called Vowchurch Jottings for the local Golden Valley News when she lived here. Now that she has moved just up the road to Peterchurch, it is rebranded Words from Woodview and some of the more recent entries are available below.

Hopefully they give an insight into life in The Golden Valley, the travails of supporting Hereford (United) FC, rural living more broadly and interesting insights into nature, history and whetever else comes in Mum’s mind on a given month!
