Headless vicars, nasty teachers and drunken farm labourers in North Wootton?
The truth proves to be stranger than fiction in a new book telling the history of the area.
The Bygone Village has been written by North Wootton resident and local expert on the past Neil Pearce and features hundreds of years of the areas’ history.
It is being published to raise money for North Wootton Village Hall and can be bought at its Christmas fair on Saturday.
