Chiselborough Yellow Book is a fascinating book about the history of village and its houses. The Somerset & S Avon Vernacular building research group has available additional copies of “Somerset villages, the houses, cottages and farms of Chiselborough”.

It is over 100 pages, detailing historical information about many of the houses and cottages, with floor plans and information of previous inhabitants. Cost £10 per copy. To aid logistics Fiona Wilson (Bridgestone House) is holding these copies. Anyone interested can contact Fiona on 07734495726, or by email or feel free to knock on the door!
