Film of Sister Mary Ward

I recently posted about Stoke Bruerne's Sister Mary Ward. When recently browsing the British Pathe News video clips about waterways, I discovered that some film of her carrying out her duties in 1949.

Classic stuff! I hope you enjoy it. It is unfortunately labelled the Bargee's Doctor! There is much more on the British Pathe site that will interest those with an interest in modern social history.

Click on the image below to run the clip. You may have to tolerate an advert before the film loads.
