Re: Petrol Station fire

Thanks for the replies,
My mother had a newspaper cutting of the incident but it got lost or burnt as they had a house fire. My father had no fingerprints as they were burnt off in the garage fire.

Petrol Station fire

I was told there was a fire at a petrol station garage around 1934 in or around the Church area.
Does anyone know anymore on this.
Apparently my father was a local hero in this.
