Earlier this year Yorkley Arts & Entertainment organised a
very successful event at The Bailey Inn to commemorate the centenary of
Yorkley Institute. Now there is a 36-page, A5 sized booklet that similarly
captures the last hundred years of Yorkley community - Remembered and
Forgotten.
This story of Yorkley 1911-2011 includes contributions from
David Adams, Gary Brown, Maggie Clutterbuck, Steve Cooper, Roger and Terry
Jones, Averil Kear, Chris Nancollas, Freda Phipps, Baroness Jan Royall and
Brian Waters, and should be on the bookshelf of every house in the village!
It's on sale at the Forest Bookshop, Dean Heritage Museum and
Monmouth Bookshop. Buy local and get it from The Bailey Inn or Yorkley Post
Office. A collectors' item, a perfect Christmas stocking-filler and and a
bargain at £3.
Look out for Yorkley Arts & Entertainment's next publication,
the life and poetry of Yorkley's first Bard of the Forest, Richard Morse.
