Woodbridge Band History

Part 2

The early sixties saw the loss of a number of key players, and the band responded by appointing John Askew as Bandmaster. He gradually built the band back up and also set the band back on a busy course of engagements. Like his father, he accompanied the band on various trips to places such as: Archway and Hoxton in London. Whittlesy, Ware, Wales and made a visit to Woubrugge in Holland in 1990.
