Items related to Constable Along the Lane
1980’s Yorkshire
The life of a countryside policeman is certainly a hectic one.
For Constable Nick, his police duties may not be as fraught with danger as his city counterparts, but he is certainly kept on his toes...
From obnoxious cleaners, to lost children and even the occasional arsonist – being a local policeman means never a dull day and Nick increasingly has his work cut out.
At the same time, the people of Aidensfield and the surrounding areas never fail to amuse with their eccentric ways...
They can even be a great help – say when the local bus driver helps stop a car thief!
With a glider crashing into a thatched cottage, or the awkwardness of a pig thief and their stolen pig giving birth in one of the cells, village life is nothing but eventful.
And for Constable Nick, raising a young family, dealing with awkward colleagues – and even the odd crime...it’s all in a day’s work.
Constable Along the Lane is as enlightening as it is amusing; sure to keep you entertained and intrigued all at once.
