Some interesting details in an article in the Dursley Gazette from Feb 1915 are as follows

"The Lydney Male Voice Choir visited Sharpness on Thursday Last and gave a further high class sacred concert in the Union Church.

As is already known, the Choir have created a big reputation by their splendid musical treats given at the Port on previous occasions.

The party were in charge of Mr C B SMALE who conducted throughout"

The songs that were sung and who sang them were listed, their names being

Mr C B SMALE
Mr W BEDDIS
Mr W T COOKE
Mr GOULDING
Mr YEATMAN

and the accompanist was Kathleen SMALE

So, how do we think they traveled to Sharpness from Lydney that evening?

Over the rail line from Purton to Sharpness ??
