Well, it would seem inappropriate to like your post Lyn, I will just say hope you feel better soon.bit of a heavy cold going on at the min alan so i am feeling about 100
I did wonder if having a Gun Club attached to a pub was a good idea, especially after a few pints! Thanks for checking. I do have access to the Newspaper articles on FMP so I will check it out, though I oftern get side tracked reading the news of the day: fascinating! JoanneJosie
There was a sort of gossip/comment column called "Bulls Eyes" in the Sports Argus in the early 1900s concerned with shooting. there are two mentions of a New Inns club, though I cannot be sure it is the same New Inns. If it is then they were not very good around 1903

Thanks Astoness. I agree it is a wonderful photograph with its vast array of hats! I was hoping the photo would have names etc written on the reverse but sadly no. I have traced my family to Berners Street around this time and in fact lived her upto the 1940/50s and was hoping the photo might provide a face! Joannewhat a cracking photo josie...nice find...most likely taken at the back of the new inns...i have posted on the photo restoration thread hopefully someone can get rid of the line running down the middle

Yes Agreed Mike, I have searched and reached a dead end regarding the name Tasker and The Shooting Club too.Have checked the directories available to me and could find no C. Tasker listed. The newspaper archives similarly showed no mention that seemed relevant
