We were taken on a fascinating journey  as we travelled back in time on the Annie McLeod Experience Ride!

The living conditions although much better than some other people of the times, were cramped in comparison to today’s standards…ten people to one room!

The village shop served the whole community and a few little unwanted customers too…mice and rats!!

School life in Victorian times was far stricter and we agreed we were much better off nowadays!

It was a fantastic day out for everyone, including the parents who came along to help us.
