Lived in Clophill just of the A6 on the village Green opposite the Pub, and lived some of the time in the Pub.

Hi there and welcome :wave:
Let us be lovely
And let us be kind
Let us be silly and free
It won't make us famous
It won't make us rich
But damn it how happy we'll be!

Hi guys!! And thanks...
I love Clophill and regularly eat in the Flying Horse since its been done up. The Green Man italian is lovely too. I used to go to the motorbike meets there which I'm sure was a little annoying for the locals... :S

The Green Man Italian, my goodness Clophill must have really changed, the pub used to be a real old sawdust on the floor and inglenook fireplace type of place when I lived there, in fact we had our wedding reception there and the whole village came, this was in the late Sixties, so I suppose it has grown into another dormitory town, but do wonder if the thatched cottages on the village green are still there as I lived there and paid an absolute fortune for the roof to be rethatched. Oh dear memories of the years gone bye.
