Educated at Braithwaite School, Dacre and Pateley Bridge Secondary Modern, Nidderdale. By tradition in those days, farmers' daughters became home-land-girls wherein horse-power ruled - as the saying goes - 'Shake a bridle over a Yorkshire man's grave and he'll rise up and steal your horse'.
Gwen was married for 28 years - resided in Grantham, Lincolnshire for most of those years. She became a free-lance writer, amidst other chance jobs - the instigator of Radio Witham, Grantham Hospital Broadcasting Service.
Gwen has one daughter, Ida, who is a musician, singer/songwriter/guitarist and author; whom she is very proud of. They now live back home in Yorkshire.view less
