View in Radio Times

LAST week Lt.-Col. Little outlined the place crafts once occupied in village life and the dwindling place they occupy today. This evening Mr. Kember, who is himself a practising blacksmith and has lectured for the Kent Rural Community Council, will describe the place of his own par. ticular craft. Now that even farm-work is increasingly done by mechanical means, the blacksmith finds less and less to do ; yet there is still excellent work for the blacksmith, and an important place for him in the village community.
