Ann and Alf Jenkins were born in the borderland, Welsh Marches countryside. They have a passion for the importance of social history. As a result they have recorded many local people with links with the past in order to document valuable social and industrial material which would otherwise have been lost forever.

Alf has spent much of the last twenty five years promoting the uniqueness of South Shropshire’s Clees, the only hills in Britain to be illustrated on Hereford’s famous Mappa Mundi.

Alf is an expert on “The Clee Hill Dialect” so much so that he has been sought after, filmed and recorded for BBC’s Nation’s Voices Project, Midlands Today, Inside Out, Country File (John Craven) Shropshire, Herefordshire and Worcestshire Radio stations, Open Country (Radio Four), Five Live with Simon Mayo and the Press.
