    Leo, in the Docking Road , was the home of Mr Eric Blackburn and his wife Mrs Eva Blackburn.
    It is the home mentioned in the recordings made by Mrs Blackburn where she describes how electricity and piped water came to Stanhoe.
    The kitchen extension on the left was added several years after the electricity and piped water came to Stanhoe.
    As is very obvious the Blackburn’s were keen gardeners, with both a wonderful flower display and a productive vegetable garden, both at the front of the house.

    Thanks Alan. So who's no. 38?

    Hi, after double checking No 37 is me, next to my mate David Watling No 36. Positive this time.
    Many thanks.

    Thank you Alan, Anthony, Roger and Anne. Not many gaps remaining! You look a very cheerful bunch, in contrast to some of the other school photos here.

    The trees are in leaf, so according to Anne's calculation we are looking at spring or summer 1953. Any further opinions about the date?

    Hi, think number 57 is me, Alan Mews.

    Many thanks keep up the good work.
