An episode in the life of The Rev Francis Kilvert written and narrated by H. COLIN DAVIS with David Davis as Kilvert
The discovery in 1937 of the Rev Francis Kilvert 's diaries gave the area around the village of Clyro under the lees of the hills of the Welsh Marches the name Kilvert country.
They cover the period 1870-79 and give a vivid picture of daily life in a country parish and in particular record his romantic feelings towards ' Daisy ' Thomas.
