I thought it was wonderful, powerful, moving… It deserves a big audience, I hope it gets it. CM

I read it in one go, I couldn’t put it down. SP

I’m so enjoying the Somerset Barn. What a tour de force in its quiet humble way. It’s so important to local history as well as the way you have documented changes over such a long period of time. The combination of journal/poetry/photography is perfect. RC.

A real gem! Such a wealth of stuff reflecting honesty and integrity about Somerset and the wider horizons. VB

I’m really enjoying it. It’s very thought provoking and beautifully written. And I love the photos…

Lots to ponder about the world in your lovely book LB

I’ve looked at all the photos – beautiful, and it’s wonderful and heartwarming. I can visualise it all through the fabulous descriptions and feel the atmosphere. JR

Makes excellent reading, bravo! AMK

I loved “the Somerset Barn” and the way in which photography, articles and poems were sewn together to make such a beautiful love affair with the barn and with Mendip. You write so well and come up with some amazing facts about rural life and how it has changed.

It is a book I will reread and I will encourage friends to read it too. FTS
