barclay end

The son of the bloke it was named after was a captain Peter Barclay, 2nd Royal norfolks in ww2 at the retreat to dunkirk. He took his shotgun and went rabbit shooting half an hour before a battle. He also advised his soldiers when shooting at stukas to "give them plenty of lead, like a low pheasant".
