She first came to Ambridge in 1954. This attractive, well-dressed woman made an immediate impact. She ran a successful market garden and married local landowner Charles Grenville, until his death in 1965.
In 1967, she married academic and bookseller John Tregorran. Although he had wooed her for years, their marriage was not the easiest. Independent Carol proved unwilling to abandon her business interests to follow John on lecture tours in America.
Between 1979 and 1981, John worked with Jennifer Aldridge on a local history project – and there were suspicions that it went further than that.
In 1990, John and Carol left Ambridge for Bristol, to make a fresh start. They attended Jill and Phil Archer’s golden wedding celebrations in 2007, and Phil's funeral in 2010.
John died in 2014. He wanted to be buried in Ambridge, so Carol returned once more. Soon after, she moved back to the village that had been her home for so many years.
