The back gardens of Tudor View cottages on the High Street looking south towards the church. The cobbler's shop is on the left of the picture. The photograph appears to have been taken from the first floor of Homeleigh Cottage.
The house, on the left, stood on the High Street, opposite Tudor House. In the 1950s it was occupied by Miss Bennett who was a talented dressmaker. It was demolished in 1971 and replaced by Tudor Cottages.
Taken from an old postcard posted in Mickleton in January 1938. The cottage on the right was the home of dressmaker, Miss Emma Bennett in the 1950s. It has since been demolished.
The village smithy with blacksmith, Mr Bryan, standing outside. Photograph taken in the 1920s. The premises later became a butcher's shop.
One of five public houses originally in the village! Only two pubs and the Hotel remain.
An old postcard sent from Stroud in 1950. It shows the Plantation, the shop and Myrtle House, then a thriving bed and breakfast business.
Stephen Cowley, in the centre, was licensee of the Milking Pail pub. This photograph was lent to Mickleton Women's Institute by Mrs Florence Bennett who had written 'August House Party' on the reverse. She grew up next door, in Hidcote Cottage, and her family and the Cowley family were great friends.
A table can be seen outside Garden Cottage (on the left). Presumably this was when there was a greengrocer's shop there.
The business is currently owned by David Moore.
