Going to
school in winter was often a tough business
in Victorian times. Many children in country districts had to walk
miles to school in all weathers and often over rough tracks across
the hills. And when they arrived it could be as cold in the school as it was outside ! This is from the diary of Llangamarch School in 1895... |
