Title: Could this be the proof Post by: Charles Cater on January 22, 2009, 12:02:02 PM I have my computer set to BBC Wales and when I clipped the North East section, this came up.
If you are interested please look. http://www.bbc.co.uk/wales/northeast/sites/denbighshire/pages/corwen.shtml (http://www.bbc.co.uk/wales/northeast/sites/denbighshire/pages/corwen.shtml) One popular pursuit among the gentry was archery. In fact, Sir Foster Cunliffe & the Watkin Wynnes were founders of the Society of Royal British Bowmen which was formed at Acton Hall in 1787. Also there are interesting items, one of which what I thought was a button but turned out to be a form of badge. A rarity apparently. I have placed the badge on here for your attention, It is now in the possession of Mr. Bernard Dennis.OBE, a member of the British Bowmen Society. |
