I recognised the photo background being in the garden of “The Gibraltar Castle”, also the names on the back are familiar as customers when my parents were landlords between 1959-67″.

  • I was pleased to see this photograph, the gentleman in the back row on the right, Mr. A. Bruton (Treasurer), was my paternal grandfather Arthur, who was still the licensee at the Gibraltar Castle until his death in 1934. My Dad, also Arthur, was born there and remembered how difficult the low ceiling made it for the darts players in the bar.
