Tony Wilkinson leaning on a Faun Frisch wheeled loader at Ravenhead brickworks. The lad stood with his back to the cabin came from Marsh Green I think. His name was Ronnie, but I forget his last name. The site was owned by Steetley Brick at this time, as witnessed by the name on the Scammell Constructor.

The chap with his back to the cabin was Ronnie Ashcroft, he was from Skelmersdale then moved to Norley Hall when he got married. My wifes mum & Ronnie were cousins.
