West Meon Remembered by Ronald Stone
Ronald Stone has kindly donated these photos of West Meon from days gone by .....
West Meon Primary School - photo taken in the main playground. Ron Stone thinks the photo was taken about 1930 but judging by the fashion we think it may have been earlier. Do you know anyone in this photo? If you do please get in touch as we would love to know

May Day was celebrated in the village and in the school each year. A big occasion for the village. Here you can see the procession in the High Street going toward Doctor's Lane
