Thanks to Elizabeth for sharing this information with VB readers. These local history talks are excellent and well worth the £1 entrance fee. Ed
Friday evening sees an illustrated talk by Roger Silsbury on the fascinating story of the Railway which once served St Lawrence village; the last line on the Island to be built and the first to close, with a life of only 55 years.
Roger Silsbury, a life long railway enthusiast, lives opposite the old station and has family connections to both the village and the railway.
