The microphone revisits Fairford
Recorded by the BBC Mobile Unit
One of the towns which S. P. B. Mais visited when he was interviewing local people for the Midland ' Microphone at Large ' series in the past two years, was Fairford,
Gloucestershire. He was there again some weeks ago with the BBC mobile recording unit, and a number of interviews were recorded in order to give a picture of Fairford life in wartime. Listeners will hear evacuees, local farmers, and a description of the town itself, including a reference to the famous stained glass of Fairford's parish church.
