can you point out the men you mentioned, because the man front centre looks like my grandad, he worked there between those dates and my mum knew the name jack stavely, she hasnt seen the picture yet but obviously she will know better than me

it is my grandad, Arthur Ince, he lived at No 20 Perch street Whelley

Apologies c.p. to you and your mum. I knew that my father had an apprentice Norman Turner who looked a bit like your grandfather on the faded photograph but clearly not with hindsight. My father enjoyed working at the Pepper Mill with his workmates in those days and you and your mum are very welcome to ask Ron Hunt for my email address as i have another photo sadly not of your grandfather which your mum might like to see without me putting it on W W

No problem John, just spoke to my mum, she says the man to his right was the drummer in grandads band, though she couldnt remember his name, my grandad played the piano
