That's Margaret Holmes the Sister of John in the striped jumper near to the left,and I think behind her is Margaret Mahoney.

My apologies ..I think it's Maureen Mahoney not Margaret.

If it's the same one Tom,she also had a Sister named Helen who always spoke really posh.Sadly Margaret passed away I think in her twenties,she had a small plant stall at the front of the old Market Hall.
