Over to Stratford-upon-Avon
James Pestridge and two young friends, Brenda Radbourne and Michael James , pay a brief visit to Shakespeare's birthplace and tell you what they see there.
Jim Pestridge recently took two Midland children, Brenda Radboume , aged 13, of Birmingham and Michael James , aged 12, of Dudley, to some of Shakespeare's boyhood haunts at Stratford-upon-Avon, and made recordings of their impressions. Pestridge has painted a sound picture of the town as it might have been seen through the eyes of young Shakespeare. From a boat on the Avon Brenda and Michael fed the famous swans and took a look at the ancient Clopton Bridge. They went to the old mill near Stratford Church, and paid a visit to Charlecote Manor in an attempt to discover the actual room where the young Shakespeare is said to have been charged with deer stealing in Charlecote Park. Charlecote is now National Trust Property. They also had a back-stage peep at the Memorial Theatre, and of what remains of the old theatre.
