Taken in Trencherfield Mill 1950's has the name Mary Stott written on back, so I presume she is on the photo.?
Thanks to Tom Penman for the photograph.

I remember the girl top left ... But don't recall her name. She lived around St Pats could have been John St and she may have been one of the Penmans....there was a lot of them.

Sorry to hear that sad news Janet she was very young. She stood out on the photo it's nearly fifty years since I lived in Scholes but I remember her. I lived in John St.
