Welcome to the Rook family website

UNDER constant CONSTRUCTION!

Below I have published a slide show of old photographs of Boughton & the surrounding area. Some I have gratefully burrowed, and others I have the original copy myself. There are quite a few, but I would dearly love lots more! If you can help me out with any old photos of the area I would really appreciate it. I can either burrow, scan then return or of course you could donate :) The old Victorian ones are of course the best, but I would love to see some War Time (1 & 2) pictures as it is a great way of archiving these past times.

I am especially looking for old photographs of my Dad's 1st shop (opposite school lane) down the village - Murray Rook, Watch & Clock Repairers.

I hopefully will soon add a little about the village, but for those of you that don't know, we sit between Faversham & Canterbury on the A2, click here to see a map.
