Drainage System dug by parishioners

Posted on August 31, 1956

From the Dunstable Gazette of August, 1956.

Many hands make light work - and save their parish church money.

When the vicar of Eaton Bray, the Rev Peter Graham, needed a drainage system digging around St Mary's Church, parishioners were only too happy to help out in August 1956.

Here young and old set to work digging a ditch, while, left, volunteer workman Wesley Maunders really gets down to it by digging a manhole. It was hoped to have the work completed before winter set in.
