Many thanks for visiting the Canvins web site. A local family in the village of Deanshanger Northants this is just a site showing our latest events and other things we get up to. My Hobbies include Trail Running, Taking photos and movies and Road biking. We also get out walking and spend a lot of our time in in national parks mainly the Lake District where we have climbed many fells, we have climbed the three highest peaks in the UK on previous travels. Walking this year has been a bit grim due to the Coronavirus Pandemic but hopefully next year should be better. You will find some local history in the Of interest menu and goto the events menu to see the places we visit. Hope you enjoy the site.
This Page is dedicated to the memory of all Canvin family members that served in the Great War 1914 - 1918. Soldiers from Australia, Canada, and the uk all saw action, and three family members paid the ultimate sacrifice.
We shall remember them please click here.
