Circa 1935.
My father Harry Greenwood is the person on the back row, extreme right. He wasn't actually a member of the choir. He used to 'pump' the otgan.

A copy of this photo hangs in St Mary's Choir Vestry. Your date is a little late. The organist (the one with the odd surplice on Mr Bryson's right) is Mr H Pilling. He became organist in 1907 (we have a pic of him from about 1914), but was poached from St Mary's by St Andrew's in 1930.
