Between 1957 and 1960? I’m researching the history of one and it was owned by a Frederick James William Iles of Northcross Road. Best wishes to you, Ian

GA, what a warm love story of Fred and Marie through the years. Marie was a lovely bride carrying that huge bouquet that was the fashion of the day. I also enjoyed that pic of Fred with the stunning pink hollyhocks in his allotment. Great story. Condolences to Fred and Smudge.
