During my second year at ‘High’ school, I returned for a quick visit to Dreibeck for the 1911 coronation [of George V on 22 June]. It was quite a journey is those days, by train, then bus, and the last five miles by horse and trap with friends. I found that a huge marquee had been erected on a large piece of flat land just beyond the Cottar bridge in one of father’s pastures. Here a most sumptuous feast was laid out on trestle tables {…] […] An evening dance in the marquee lit by numerous farm lanterns followed, and a real but small band from Norgarth, engaged specially for the occasion, played for this as well as during the afternoon. |
