Power comes to Widecombe SWEB

a great 1960s film showing how SWEB, THE SOUTH WEST ELECTRCITY BOARD brought electric power to the Dartmoor village of Widecombe in Devon. Great village scenes, cars vans and above all local people who were school children here and now must be adults.

I bet the ladiesof the village were tickled pink to have a Hoover and an electric cooker!
