with S. P. B. Mais
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.
