Recordist's notes
Outside The Church Inn pub. The church next door strikes 6pm (although how three sets of three rings followed by nine rings signifies 6pm I'm not sure!) Also a very rare, for these parts, an American accent from a passer by can be heard. Pub noise from inside the pub is also heard, it was pouring with rain.
