James Shore ran a building business in West Lavington, and arranged for his nephews, James and Reuben John Shore to train as a wheelwright and a blacksmith. During the late 19th century, the business concentrated on cart building, and later Reuben John became a general handyman and agricultural contractor. These notebooks provide an insight into village life for a tradesman at the end of the 19th century and in the 1920s.
