What a wonderful documentary on Gales past. Thank you so much for a beautiful piece of film history.
This is a beautifully made film which provides a sensitive evocation of the love and camarederie which went into creating and sustaining a brewery such as Gale's.
Thank you.
Cowrey (Kauri) Pine who would have guessed, we have a couple of majestic specimens growing nearby. I wonder what happened to them. They would've been a thing of beauty. Tragic that the brewery was lost to Chiswick. Malcolm's insight along with the other contributors was particularly informative and moving. Well conducted too, letting the people speak.
excellent!
Fascinating . I lived in horndean for years.......can anyone remember Peta Gale, she was I believe the adopted daughter of Ricard Gale.....shee supposedly attended a boarding school in Isle of Wight but I can't find any record whatsoever.
Cheers Fullers. Another wonderful custodianship.
