I think my father worked at the Newsagents before he was married. The name of the person he worked for was Edwards; not sure if that was first name or Surname. I was born in Redhill Feb 13 1944.
The small boy on the donkey is my father, Arthur Wallis, born 1904 in Bletchingley.
The man standing to the right is my grandfather, Arthur Wallis senior, born 1862 in Bletchingley. Arthur Wallis senior was the licensee of the Red Lion Inn and later the proprietor of the newsagents in the background.
The Wallis family came to Bletchingley early 1700s and for 200 years carried out bricklaying as their trade.
