Anne McEntegart wanted to support the War Effort. Her Royal Air
Force officer husband was working abroad and her only child was in
Canada, evacuated for safety. Aged thirty-eight, Anne left London,
and her life as the wife of an officer, to work on the land and
deliver milk for Walter Gossling at New Park Farm, just outside the
village of Brockenhurst, in the New Forest. Though not an official
member of the Women's Land Army, Anne milked cows and stacked corn
alongisde the land girls on the farm. Engagingly detailing the
brim-full days of farm life during the build-up to the D-Day and
after, this book celebrates the people and places - not to mention
a wayward pony - which made up the wartime Brockenhurst community.
The Milk Lady at New Park Farm is a World War Two diary of
farmwork, friendship and fulfilment among the ponies and corn
sheaves of the New Forest.
