I was told about this interesting website where you can listen to English accents and dialects and was pleased to find a recording by Charles PUGH (b. l877) of Lyonshall who was "a former chimney sweep and retired gardener. Apparently the tape was made in l952. As I have a personal interest in Lyonshall (PRICE/PREECE connections) I found this an enchanting experience.

Here's the website:

Enjoy!!
