Help!!! What place is this ?
« on: Saturday 02 July 05 23:22 BST (UK) »
Hi Everybody,

 i've just been given details about my Gt Gt Nans Parents, unfortunately we cant make out her Fathers place of birth...

It looks like : Penwick  !!

Is there such a place in Worcestershire, or any other suggestions as to what it may read...

Thank you

Hi Arronroots

Is there such a place called  Pendock, if not then it could well be Henwick

Darcy is right, Pendock is due west of Tewkesbury, just on the border of Worcestershire and Gloucestershire - a small village these days still.

Find it near junction 2 of the M50
