Photo by Colin Pearce 1950's Ruth getting the coal in....note the out side loo.no hot water on tap in this house. Until the Alkers left and a new extention was built in the 1970's. Ruth's cooking was second to none.Boy do I miss it...Ormskirk potatoes chipped in dripping and her meat pies...meat and potatoe pies. Apple pies and proper custard pies....missed so much.Martin (Grandson)
