A MEMBER of an old Holt family has spoken of her pride that her grandfather’s name will live on in history at a new housing development in the village. The name was given to a new house being built on the site of the old J&T Beaven tannery where Arthur Dunford worked for most of his life. Arthur is one of seven workers at J&T Beaven who served in the First World War whose names have been given to the styles of home being built on the 250-year-old site by Stonewood Partnerships. The housebuilder, which is building 44 two, three and four-bedroomed homes on the site, is working in partnership with sister firm Stonewood Builders, which is converting the historic Bath stone workshops and warehouses into 100 workspaces.
