Title Teddy the bull calf being introduced to two kids at the Carmelite Order at Presteign
Description Black and white photograph of Teddy the bull calf being introduced to two kids at the convent. The nun is from the Sisters of the Carmelite Order from Presteigne. The ‘building nuns of Presteigne’ as they were subsequently styled by the local press, built the Church of Our Lady of the Assumption and St Thérèse. The nuns purposely generated publicity to attract funds and the enterprise also became the subject of a Pathé news film. The nuns left the convent in 1988 but the church, now listed, still functions as the local Catholic church. 1970.
