| Description |
English: Sign of the "Guss & Crook" The inn sign of The Guss and Crook gives some idea of the hardships endured by miners of the Somerset Coal Field in former days.
Pit ponies were used for this work in other parts of the country. ---- ooOoo ---- "The oldest member of the Timsbury community still living in the village has died at the Laurels Nursing Home at the age of 98. Les Bridges was born at Hobbs Wall, Farmborough, on April 15, 1910. Much of his working life saw him employed in the mines, principally at Pensford, where he used to wear the guss and crook." In his younger days, Mr Bridges was a talented footballer for both Farmborough and Timsbury and represented the county."
