Default 1947 winter and farming

The freezing cold spell in January 1987 brought
temperatures down to levels comparable with winter 1962/63, and with
more snow, (below -20C so I've heard, and up to 30 inches of snow in the
North Downs), but its effects were localised in the SE.


Oh no they weren't! http://www.turnstone-cottage.co.uk/1987Snow.pdf

Definitely not the SE.
