The White Horse

Does anyone remember the Pickerings who owned The White Horse Hotel in Hocliffe in the early 1900s? This would have been my grandfather, his name was William Pickering and his wife was Kate. My father remembers living there, he was born in 1901 (Leslie Pickering) but moved on when he was quite young. I would love to hear from anyone who is still able to remember the hotel. I have a large picture of the back of the hotel with Kate feeding her turkeys. The pub food was good and it was well known for her marvellous Hare Pie.
