Photo taken on Seven Drive outside my grans house. My auntie Ann is the one wearing the Chinese Hat with Margaret Cuerden to her right. Do you recognise anyone?

It looks like it was taken towards the top end of Severn drive on the opposite side from the Norley pub.

It looks like a may queen to me. Is that not Margaret Cuerden on the left dressed as what appears to be a gypsey. Margaret lived in Queen Street.

You are right Barbara. My mistake. Margaret is my auntie's cousin. There mum Peggy sadly passed away last year.
