Another lovely photo , Fred. So sad that John Aspinall is no longer with us and passed away so young.
Of the four friends in his group, just one now remains.

Did John Stretton later live on Shevington Lane - sadly died in the mid 1990s?

I knew John's father and mother : Harry and Rene Stretton. They were caretakers at Shevi High and left Highfield St Mathews to go to St Barnabas Marsh Green
