In my view, our finest poet was Nicholas Freestone of Clayton.
Other poets'/writers' names are coming to mind.....Alice Miller, Ronald Digby, Joan Pomfret, Les & Alan Bond (Les is still alive and performing in a group called The Fireside Fusiliers)

Alice Miller was mentioned in this thread.

From the same great-aunt who knew Alice Miller, I inherited some of Joan Pomfret's books too, but know little details about her life.
