A Devonshire comedy by Jan Stewer.
The action takes place at Metston Farm, Brackington, Devon. Time, the present
See page 15

Jan Stewer in his own play.
The Barnet of the title never appears; it is his scheme that looms large. His idea was to collect all the farm produce from miles around and retail it, so he built 'a place the size of a cathedral'- and some of the farmers co-operated and some didn't. Mark Lannacott was one of those who did, with what result the play will reveal. The plot of this drama is strong enough in its own right to hold one's interest; combined with sharp characterisation and authentic dialogue it becomes a lovable and very spirited comedy of rural manners.
