Our Lost Countryside
a Triple Pack: DVD, CD & 24 Page Illustrated Booklet
About The Product
Until sixty years ago the British countryside retained many of its ancient traditions, with
small fields, working villages and local customs, most of which have been lost to mechanisation and science. Country life was tough and simple ... but rewarding, with the crops harvested by hand, the cows tended by milkmaids and even the Royal Mail delivered by one man and his pony! This 'Yesteryear Scrapbook' opens a window on the past, to the way things were before the modern age transformed our green and pleasant
land forever.
