Gathurst Hall farm, Gathurst Rd Shevington C.1950.

The photo is an old one of a friend of Doreen Tickle of Shevington, named Ellen Wadsworth, who lived at the farm C.1950, who moved away around that time to possibly Warrington area.
My friend Doreen, of Shevington, who’s grandfather was lock keeper at Gathurst and is now 90, wonders if anyone else recalls Ellen her or the family?
Gathurst Hall farm is the one near the canal at Gathurst where the caravans are.

I know Veronica, it's strange isn't it, how you can see someone in other people? xx
