Board School, Plump Hill (General)

Hi, My mother's first proper job was teaching at the Plump school - that would have been around 1927 when she was 16 or so. She had to leave when she married my dad in 1932, as married women weren't allowed to work in that sort of job at the time. I'm not sure how she got there from Ruardean. Caught the Gloucester bus through Drybrook, got off at the top of the Stenders and walked through the woods, perhaps.

Cheers
