‌TRANSCRIPT OF ANGLIA TV NEWS INTERVIEW WITH KATE THURSTON, HIGH STREET, STEWKBURY, BEDFORDSHIRE‌

It’s the kind of house you don’t notice, even when you’ve been living in the village for years. It’s right on the outskirts and is so overgrown you can’t see it through the trees and the bushes. The last time anyone lived here was over thirty years ago – an elderly couple who I think were joined later on by a young family. Then a few years later, they all did a moonlight flit. Nobody knows why or where they went. Anyway, I’d never seen anyone come or go from it until that new couple arrived. We were all wondering who’d take on a place like that. We thought they must have deep pockets and a lot of time on their hands.
