Many thanks for the info. Alex was my grandfather and my mother lived at that pub before her marriage in 1945 . They lost everything in the air raid on their home . The family moved to Brighton in 1946 .
I have discovered that my maternal grandparents kept a public house at 212-213 Bell Barn Road . Would anyone know the name of that pub please ? Also was it bombed to destruction in the early years of the war . The story I was told as a child was that it was near an ammunition factory ?? Thanks
