Scilly Stories - Episode 3. Arthur Swift

The hosts interview Arthur Swift of Mount Todden Farm at Pelistry on St Mary's, who arrived on Scilly in the 1950s and never left.

 

Arthur shares stories of farming in the early days, growing bulbs and vegetables, island self‑sufficiency, and how life on the islands has changed over the decades he has been here.
