To Ladye Bay and Back tells the remarkable story of the swimming community in the North Somerset town of Clevedon.. Told through the eyes of the legendary Clevedon swimmer, Gertrude Higginbottom, we start our story in the Iron Age and go right through to the present day. Stories about the everyday folk of Clevedon are intertwined with cameos from, amongst others, Elvis Presley, Queen Elizabeth II and Jesus Christ, all of whom swam in Clevedon and grew to love the town.
Learn about the swimming friars, the Clevedon mafia and fascinating characters like Johnny Guffington, Frederick Tebay and, of course, Betty and Mildred. To Ladye Bay and Back is inspired by the wonderful swimming community in Clevedon and is a must read for all lovers of the water and those who are interested in Clevedon's incredible past
