Sorry Cashy didn't know him...the ones I knew on St James Road were Ken Young...lived oppsite the church wall leading down to the poultry farm....
who later had a shop with his German wife opposite Wrists wires and then took the Royal Duke in Blackburn........His nickname was 'Farmer'............A man called Wilson who lived at the big house at the end on the right just before you go over the bridge........he was supposed to be an inventor of some kind......Jennie Yates who was the mother of my friend Brian and his sister Jenita.
