This is a photograph of the Old Forge in Mill Road, the lad on the left’s surname is Smith, the man on the extreme right is his cousin called Arthur Smith, their fathers were brothers, the name of the other man is not known, the buildings are still there but now a private dwelling.
The information came from “Bruiser” alias Jimmy Saunders and the photo can be seen in the bar of the “Wheel” PH in Alpington. Our thanks to “Angie” for allowing us to copy the picture.
CAN ANYBODY IDENTIFY THE UNKNOWN MAN AND THE CHRISTIAN NAME OF THE OTHER SMITH ?.
