'Notorious past resident' to be subject of talk at museum
Augustus John, one of Fordingbridge’s most notorious past residents will be the subject of a talk organised by Fordingbridge Museum on Friday 26th April. His unconventional and bohemian lifestyle dismayed some locals when he lived in Fordingbridge from 1927 to 1961. The talk, entitled “Brilliant Destiny”, looks at John’s early life up until 1914.
