WE HAVE just started the renovation of the original Lady Anne building.

Having removed a wall plaque, we found the signatures of four men. One is my father and the others are: Harold Blackborn, 26.3.34 (my dad’s best friend) and then also W. Arthur, bricklayer, born in York, 4.9.1904 and KS Welsh, joiner, frame fixer....no date of birth but the date of the start of works which was June 27, 1973.

I would like to know if any of these men are your relatives/friends and if you have any stories to tell. Please contact me at the address below.
