A familiar name to all of us. |

Certainly is. Something I have never looked into is who Thomas Sutcliffe is/was. One of these fine days I might just have a dig. |

Thanks Maureen. I'm currently adding postcards to the main site but I will have a look at my file later to see if this family is in it or not. Speaking of the postcards - Kris went to the postcard fair in London last week and bought quite a few. Another hour and they should all be visible within the photo archive. |

Just browsing throught the photo gallery and spotted one entitled 'Bob Munn's Corner'. Could this be the same Robert Munn? http://www.briercliffesociety.co.uk/Pho ... Corner.htm |
