We have had a fascinating contribution from Jane Charlton of Middlehill. She recalls the history of her cottage which was once The Three Cups coaching inn on the old Bath-Shockerwick-London Road.

And she tells how she created a marvellous mosaic of pottery shards dug from her garden with plenty of tips on how it can be done.

Jane said, I read of your website, Box People and Places, and wondered if you might be interested in my work which challenges notions of archaeology and art.

We were interested; and so will you be. You can read Jane’s full article called Middlehill Meals under the Blog heading.
