| Quote: A violin made by a German soldier at an Essex prisoner of war camp has been restored and is to be played again. The instrument is marked "1944" inside and was crafted at High Garret in Braintree, which held German and Italian prisoners during World War Two. | |

Back at my parents is a small toy made by Italian POWs who were held near where my mum lived when she was a child. I expect, as she was near Braintree, it could have come from the same camp.
