Hello lagerlil, The names I remember but I think they was older than me I'm 62 next birthday, I think they would be around my sisters age group between 65 and 67. Was it George Crapper ?

Hi Lagerlil,

 

He's really well thanks, living a quiet life down in Lincolnshire. Myself and my brother (not young George) would have been the two kids at the pub.

It's a shame there aren't more photos of Bungay Street and area before it was demolished. I remember my parents taking me to Park library when I was about 5 (around 1951) I think it was a Miss Brookbanks that was the librarian. There was also the pigeon cotes just off Bungay Street.
