Hi, Peggy,
This is a lovely page. I’ve enjoyed looking at the website. I do have a beautiful picture of the church that I could send to someone with email that can open jpg files. Do you think I could post the photo of the house on old Mill Road (Belvoir Ave.) to see if anyone knows anything of its history? Keep up the good work!
I am coming to Bottesford for a family party on Feb 2nd. Can anyone help me find accommodation in Bottesford or Muston. Any help would be gratefully recieved. Thanks. (I have tried the thatch, but they’re closing for their hols that week.
Hi,
I am looking for any information about my gradmother Annie Topps – who had a sister Katie. Their father was John James Howard Topps. Mother Elizabeth Topps. All born in either Bottesford or Muston.
Lovely web page – thank you.
I have in my possession a descendant report for Thomas Topps grandfather of John Topps born 1853 died 1905 married Elizabeth Dewey 1887. For more information email ptopps@talktalk.net
What a very informative tour of the many eating establishments in Bottesford. It is noted that all the pictures were taken by Peggy Topps, I wonder did she sample the delights at every location, if so it must have taken weeks to get round them and did she have to pay for the privilage of advertising these establishments. Well done Peggy I hope to see more of your lovely photographs in the future…. With a little luck I hope to visit your village in the very near future.
Sorry I got that wrong! Market St is a continuation of High St, silly me. Paul’s rest. is in Bugg’s butcher’s shop.
Say Hi to Peggy Topps, we went to Muston School and Melton Mowbray grammar in the 40s and 50s. I was at the latter with Graham Chapman too.
