Bennions Timber Yard

A Memory of Little Sutton.

I remember my father going quite often to Bennions timber yard, the smell of sawn timber, also in the yard was a blacksmith, who when I was child was in his 90s, I remember the horses coming in the be shod, and I was allowed to pump up the coals, and watch.
Also just a few doors down was Irwins, a family friend Gerry Thomas was the manager of the shop, he and his wife Eve lived in the huge flat above the shop.
