Early 1950's; This photo also needs names adding:-
Back row: Tommy Lovell, right of keeper Roy Simpson, far right Billy Walker.
Front row: 3rd left Ken Mather, far right H.Harrison.

Billy Walker was the manager of the Gen Chems team I played in, What a character he was, lovely one off, told the team he was a lubrication engineer, he lived with his sister Bertha in Lancaster Avenue. Regular in the Rec with Sid Fowles and others every Saturday after the football.

1954: A small corner of the Horticultural Show at the ICI Field Day. It Looks like Mr J.Finney [left side] from Weston Village in charge of the display.
This is the 48th and final picture in the file, there is however a programme from 1947 which has a detailed layout plan of the grounds that I will share on here, the programme itself is extensive with hundreds of names if anyone is interested.
Thank you for all the positive comments, I didn't want the photo's to be wasted and I am so pleased they have been appreciated by so many.
Thanks to George for his help,
