Billy,
I'm from Moreton in Marsh, just across the county border, but the next town on the Fosseway to Shipston on Stour which is in Warks. The 2nd Gloucestershire HG Bn HQ was at Chipping Campden and covered that area.
I have documents and photos so please feel free to give your friend my email address and maybe I can help.

Hi Jerry Shipton just outside Stratford approximately 8 miles, a lot of the lads I work with come from there, heck of a commute on their parts!
