Quorn, Leicestershire Transcription Any written text transcribed from a sound. When I was 9 my grandmother, who at that time was living at Quorn House, Quorn, died and she left me the house and the park land in trust…we moved from London and came to live at Quorn house…I can remember thinking that the house was extremely large and getting lost in the grounds. Quorn seemed to be a fairly small, tightly knit village. It had its own bobby, bobby Norman who seemed to run law and order completely unaided and work a 24 hour day. The church was still very much the hub of the activities in Quorn and the vicar was Canon Rumsey who had a brother, Murray Rumsey, who was a bit of a character who was the local reporter. He was also a lay reader and the choir master…with the outbreak of the war gradually the staff diminished and they were called up. The gardeners too were gradually replaced by Land Girls because the big walled kitchen garden was extensively used for growing fruit and vegetables…it wasn’t long before the house became a Red Cross convalescent home and we had a number of VADs, [Voluntary Aid Detachment] one of whom was a Barbara Mathers who eventually I married and has been living at Quorn ever since.
