“The Remarkable Pinwill Sisters”
Speaker Dr Helen Wilson – Wednesday 29th March 2023
The Pinwill sisters, Mary, Ethel and Violet, worked as woodcarvers in Ermington and then in Plymouth from about 1899. They set up their own company ‘Rashleigh Pinwill & Co which is ranked amongst the best in the West Country. By 1957, when the business folded after the death of Violet Pinwill, their carvings featured in over 185 churches in Devon and Cornwall.
