In shot is John Hankin and Alan Stretch just oustide the door, BB Captain Brian Perry chatting to the Vicar Reverend T Robinson, I think it is the top of Norman Ashcroft's head behind the two ladies and Eddie Whittaker in front. Can you fill in any missing names? The vicarage is shown in the background.

Looking at the photo again I am sure that isn't the vicarage as it is set further back although there used to be a smaller building in the vicarage grounds, not sure what it was or whether it was the builing with the pitched roof or if it was still there at the time of the photo. The houses would be in Leader St.

The two storey building with tall chimney is I am told the old coach house where the clergy of yesteryear kept the horse and coach to undertake officaial duties. The building was demolished in the early 1970s.
