| Description: |
Muriel Pearcey, originally Miss Beck, taught at Countisbury school for over 40 years, first with her mother and then on her own. She was there until it closed. She thinks small schools are very valuable and was devoted to her 'scholars', many of whom still keep in touch. She was also devoted to the Halliday family, who owned the school, and deeply involved in the life of the community.
