cuttingedge Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 The care home was Mr Newton-Drew-s home, Drew being being his wife's maiden name they both had their own RR. My farther-in law was born next door in 1917. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nigel Womersle Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 When Raincliffe became Hartwell, it was run by Sister Perry and her husband. I was their postman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

england27 Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 I Don't know where he lived But I do recall him Arriving in a morning in a Packard and being dropped of outside the impressive Headquarters, I worked there from 1946 to 1955. I remember the new Sports complex being built that had tennis Courts, Football Fields, a Cricket field, and a bowls club, this was in the early 50's and it was opened by Herbert Sutcliffe and Harold West bowled the first ball to him and it was dispatched into the railway sidings, me and My mate Ken Mell searched for it for hours without success I wonder if its still there Gordon England (scarborough) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
