When I returned to Godshill in 1981 after having lived in Papua New Guinea and New Zealand for ten years I noticed many changes. The village school was still open but was soon to close. The village shop had taken over from the old Post Office and the landlord of The Fighting Cocks had retired with his wife to what was the old Post Office. They had turned it into a B&B. Sitting in their garden reminiscing one afternoon I notice an old County Council road sign lying in the hedge. Jim had saved this when the council came to erect a new sign at the realigned junction of the B3078 and the side road which led to Woodgreen.
