Apologies for not posting since 2010! The attached photo shows my grandfather, who was landlord of The Royal George from 1943. He died in 1954. Until I saw the above photo, I had forgotten how my late father used to tell me about the smell from the HP Sauce factory! If you have a higher res copy of the photo above I would be forever grateful...
