Cowden Caravan Site, East Yorkshire

A Memory of Great Cowden.

I am researching the history of the Caravan site at Cowden in East Yorkshire; part of a bigger project. My grandfather bought a caravan at Cowden, around 1962. It was a small, round roofed thing, lovingly christened "Rollo". It was his pride and joy and the family, including myself as a small boy, spent many a happy weekend there. Does anyone remember the site owners' name for that time? There was also a general store there, ran, at the time, by a chap with a southern accent. Or the name of the odd job/groundsman chap that used to wizz round on a tractor (fascinating for a six year old), does anyone remember him? There is a possibility that one of them lived on the site, perhaps in a bungalow, at the entrance of the site. Any information would be appreciated.
Gary.
