HG Andrews Papers

The collection includes a neat copy manuscript book of poems entitled 'A Tale Told', and a number of other caligraphically written poems, with a few letters from Andrews to Kyrle Fletcher.

HG Andrews was an artist and poet, a maker of lino-cuts and simple poems, often with a straightforward religious theme. He was a friend of Walter de la Mare, and two poems of his appear in a de la Mare-edited anthology, Love, in 1946. In 1934 he was living in Bristol, in 1936 in Llandaff, Glamorgan, and from 1938 in Taunton
