Since the early 1930s, Chieveley has undergone significant changes, particularly during World War II, when the village was affected by evacuees and military personnel. The book offers a glimpse into the lives of many villagers, including their sporting achievements and personal stories. This collection of anecdotes provides a unique insight into the history and character of Chieveley, making it a fascinating read for those interested in local history and community life. With its focus on village life and the impact of war, Chieveley Remembered is a thoughtful and engaging account that sheds light on a bygone era.
